Product Description

Review

"A godsend for parents looking for answers. Wilens takes the mystery out of medication." - Time

"An informative guidebook... The author's straight talk about medications will help parents become 'informed collaborators' in their child's psychiatric care." - Publishers Weekly

"Even the best doctor cannot spend enough time explaining to each parent all of the information this book presents." - Parent Council

"Filled with helpful tables and charts, definitions, commonly asked questions, and sources for further information and support." - Library Journal

"I have used Dr. Wilens's book in teaching graduate social work students about mental health issues with children and adolescents. I have found Dr. Wilens's approach to be direct, understandable, and applicable for my students as they learn about pharmacological interventions with children and adolescents. My students, too, report that the book is one they have shared with families, internship supervisors, and colleagues; one they will keep in their resource libraries long after they complete their graduate education." - Jane Addams College of Social Work, University of Illinois, USA

"Dr. Wilens has done it again! This authoritative resource is particularly timely - the topic of medications for kids is increasingly in the news, but it can be hard for parents to find the unbiased, clear, and thoughtful information they need when making decisions about their own child's care. I highly recommend this practical book." - Joseph Biederman, Chief, Clinical and Research Program in Pediatric Psychopharmacology, Massachusetts General Hospital, USA
