Sommario/riassunto

This book provides the most important and practical information on prescribing SSRIs for the treatment of depression and anxiety. The volume outlines the best strategies for choosing medications based on the specific symptoms each patient presents with, and for using them safely and successfully. The information is ready to use and easy to remember; it provides practical checklists for each SSRI medication on the following topics: pharmacodynamic profile and potential efficacy for specific symptoms, indications, contraindications, and ideal candidates for the medication; laboratory monitoring and follow-up; dosages, titration, and personalization strategies; side effects and management strategies; and clinical pearls. Given its features, the book will be a valuable resource for psychiatrists, neurologists, primary care



physicians, residents, and any other healthcare practitioner seeking a simple, concise, and immediately useful tool for everyday clinical practice.
