Mathematical\nmodeling of parameters that affect their entryto,and exit from, the central\nnervous system (CNS) compartment are presented on an individual basis and then\napplied to target populations with specific disease states. Methods and\ncharacteristics that inform the transfer of these drugs from the laboratory\nbench to use in patient care are discussed, including imaging techniques,\ngenetics and physiological barriers, such as the blood-brain barrier. The second\nsection describes the characteristics of specific agents,nominally arranged\nintodifferent therapeutic categories andwith reference crossover use in\ndifferent disease states. The pharmacologic characteristics of different drug\nformulations are explored in the context of their ability to improve patient\nadherence. The third section focuses on drug-drug interactions.Psychotropic medications\nfrom different categories are frequently prescribed together,or alongside\nmedications used to treat comorbid conditions, and the information provided is\ndirectly relevant to the clinic, as a result.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe\nclinical application of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CNS agents has\nmade significant progress over the past 50 years and new information is reported\nby numerous publications in psychiatry, neurology, and pharmacology.Our\nunderstanding of the interrelationship between these medications, receptors,\ndrug transporters, as well as techniques for measurement and monitoring their\ninteractions,isfrequently updated. However, with information presented on a\nhost of different platforms, and in differentformats, obtaining the full\npicture can be difficult. This title aims to collate this information into a\nsingle source that can be easily interpreted and applied towards patient care\nby the clinical practitioner, and act as a reference for all others who have an\ninterest in psychopharmacological agents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Adis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-04-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319802343\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-27883-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 601\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47525349654668,"sku":"9783319802343","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319802343.jpg?v=1776023896","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319802343","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
