Treatment-Resistant Mood Disorders cover

Treatment-resistant major depression and bipolar disorder are highly prevalent and disabling conditions associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The assessment and management of refractory patients with mood disorders is a major clinical challenge for mental health providers. Part of the Oxford Psychiatry Library (OPL) series, this pocketbook provides a concise view of the current definitions, assessment and evidence-based management of treatment-resistant mood disorders and reviews novel therapeutic targets for mood disorders, which may enhance the therapeutic armamentarium of clinicians in the near future. The pocketbook serves as a useful guide for mental health practitioners, including psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, trainees, and interested primary care physicians.

Although small, this book provides a wealth of information about an extremely important area that is frequently misunderstood and undertreated. It is a useful read for all psychiatrists, but is a must read for all psychiatric residents. * Michael Easton, MD (Rush University Medical Center); Doodys Reviews *
