    • French
    Aujourd’hui, la polypharmacologie est un outil majeur pour le traitement des patients souffrant de formes graves et chroniques de troubles de l’humeur, d’anxiété, de psychose ou de troubles du comportement.Dans l’esprit des travaux et écrits de Stephen M. Stahl, cet ouvrage offre une vue d’ensemble novatrice sur les connaissances en psychopharmacologie et les stratégies de prises de décision, en intégrant les résultats d’essais fondés sur les preuves aux données de la clinique, avec des exemples et des situations cliniques réelles. Il aborde la manière dont les prescripteurs peuvent mettre en place une « psychopharmacologie sur mesure », adaptée aux besoins spécifiques de chaque patient, en conservant l’approche et l’état d’esprit d’un praticien.Quelle que soit leur expérience, les professionnels pourront ainsi affiner et améliorer leurs prescriptions et leurs prises en charge, en ciblant les manifestations des circuits neuronaux dysfonctionnels et les dimensions psychopathologiques, au-delà des diagnostics psychiatriques conventionnels.Prése... sous une forme dynamique, pratique et en couleurs, avec des tableaux de synthèse, des encadrés et des vignettes cliniques concrètes, cet ouvrage est un guide précieux d’aide à la décision pour tous les praticiens qui prescrivent des psychotropes.
