Side effects: Explains how the drug causes side effects; gives a list of notable, life threatening or dangerous side effects; gives a specific rating for weight gain or sedation, and advice about how to handle side effects, including best augmenting agents for side effects. Dosing and use: Gives the usual dosing range; dosage forms, how to dose and dosing tips; symptoms of overdose; long-term use; if habit forming, how to stop; pharmacokinetics; drug interactions, when not to use and other warnings or precautions. Special populations: Gives specific information about any possible renal, hepatic and cardiac impairments, and any precautions to be taken for treating the elderly, children, adolescents, and pregnant and breast-feeding women. The art of psychopharmacology: Gives the author's opinions on issues such as the potential advantages or disadvantages of any one drug, the primary target symptoms, and clinical pearls to get the best out of a drug. Several indices are provided, including a listing of drugs by name (generic and international), drugs by class, and drugs by use. In response to the rapid developments in psychopharmacology, almost every drug has been updated, taking into account new regulations and uses to provide the most up-to-date information.
