Product Description

Review

'What began as a description of the prescribing practice in a particular trust has now become an essential reference for anyone with the responsibility for prescribing or monitoring psychotropics and anticonvulsants ... This is a unique volume of immense value for guiding the trainee and the more experienced in the rational, safe and effective use of psychotropic medication for those with mental illness.' - Celia Feetman, The Psychiatric Bulletin

'...provides exactly "what it says on the tin"...I would regard this book as mandatory for any pharmacist directly involved in the care of patients with a psychiatric diagnosis, be they primary or secondary care-based.' - Thom Shaw, The Pharmaceutical Journal



Product Description

Now entering its ninth edition, The Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines is the most widely used guide to psychiatric prescribing in the UK.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for every Psychiatrist, 14 Nov 2007
By liz (Hampshire) - See all my reviews
This is quite simply the best synthesis of essential information about the prescribing of psychotropic medication there has ever been. I, and every other Psychiatrist I know has a well-thumbed copy of the last edition on their desk and this latest one contains some much anticipated updates.

The book covers all aspects of prescribing in Psychiatry from the mundane to the bizarre, summarising the evidence for each treatment and offering extensive references. Despite the broad content, it is extremely practical and user-friendly and much of the essential information is summarised in accessible charts and tables which are easy to scan quickly and can even be used to present options to patients.

The authors have been extremely thorough yet concise and the end result is both a handy pocket guide and reference book. Every Psychiatrist, without exception should own a copy and refer to it regularly.

By A. Ceregato (Turin, Italy) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Synthetic and exhaustive sections (i.e. Schizophrenia, Depression & anxiety, Bipolar disorder...); ideal for daily practice, fundamental for trainees.

3.0 out of 5 stars Going downhill..., 3 Nov 2008
By Mark Lawson (Manhattan, N.Y.) - See all my reviews
Unfortunately this book series seems to be going the way of the Oxford "cheese and onion" handbook. It started off a few years ago as a very concise readable guide that had all the essentials you needed as a prescriber. As the editions progressed it has become more and more bloated, and this latest version is the largest yet. It includes tons of pointlessly redundant information, and has made the 'fast facts' hard to find. It's like lugging around a full-blown textbook with you rather than a handy quick-reference guide.

The information in it is still solid, and it's still 'the bible' for psychiatrists, but they really need to cut out some of the cruft for the next edition instead of continually expanding for expansion's sake.
