Note: The authors have worked to ensure that all information in this book is accurate at the time of
publication and consistent with general psychiatric and medical standards, and that information concerning
drug dosages, schedules, and routes of administration is accurate at the time of publication and consistent
with standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the general medical community. As
medical research and practice continue to advance, however, therapeutic standards may change. Moreover,
specific situations may require a specific therapeutic response not included in this book. For these reasons
and because human and mechanical errors sometimes occur, we recommend that readers follow the advice
of physicians directly involved in their care or the care of a member of their family.
Books published by American Psychiatric Association Publishing represent the findings, conclusions, and
views of the individual authors and do not necessarily represent the policies and opinions of American
Psychiatric Association Publishing or the American Psychiatric Association.
