Neuropsychopharmacology: A Comprehensive Guide

By Jahangir Moini, Anthony LoGalbo, Jennifer Schnellmann

Neuropsychopharmacology is a comprehensive guide that reviews the principles of pharmacology with a focus on the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system. It uniquely discusses psychiatric disorders and the pharmacological interventions available for conditions including depression, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorders.

Each chapter in this book includes classifications of medications, pharmacokinetics, mechanism of action, clinical indications, and toxicities. The end-of-chapter questions offer real-world case studies, and multiple-choice questions provide further learning opportunities. Two extensive examination tests, each containing 100 questions, are beneficial for learning or teaching purposes. A glossary is also included for quick reference.

Helpful appendices cover high-alert medications and toxicology effects on the nervous system. This book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals in the field of pharmacology and psychiatry.
