This extensively revised second edition provides a user-friendly step-by-step manual on the range of psychotropic medications prescribed for children and adolescents by clinicians and nurse practitioners. Boasting nearly double the medications of the first edition, it features new sections related to pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenetics in children and adolescents alongside algorithms for addressing frequently encountered disorders such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and OCD. Based on the best-seller, Stahl's Prescriber's Guide, and using a full-color template-driven navigation system, it combines evidence-based data with clinically informed guidance to support prescribers in the field. Each drug is presented in the same classic design format with illustrated guidance on dosing, titration, and pharmacogenetics/metabolism. Color-coded sections distinguish clearly the information presented on therapeutics, safety and tolerability, dosing and use, what to expect, and the art of psychopharmacology, and are followed by updated and new key references. A must-have guide for all mental health professionals. Review: Great reference - A very detailed book. This is exactly what I was looking for. Review: Very comprehensive - Everything you need to know about Peds psycho-pharm at your fingertips. Love the specific Peds dosing and the Pearls. You can also clearly see what is FDA approved for specific diagnoses and age. Well worth the cost

A practical and scholarly book for all clinicians who work with children and adolescents…
I highly recommend this book that provides accessible and scholarly guidance for pharmacotherapy in children and adolescents. The book spans contemporary ethical issues, parent engagement, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenetics, dosing, side effects, risks, drug interactions, and practical tactics. The evidence-based content is presented in a straightforward manner for busy clinicians, students, and clinical pharmacologists with advanced training.

Well describes the current knowledge working with the specific population.
This book is nicely structured and easy to use even for a quick glance. The most valuable part is that it collects all the current knowledge helping in a work with the specific and sensitive population.
