Description
An invaluable resource for clinicians who want to stay ahead of the curve in this rapidly evolving area, Psychedelics: A Clinical Guide, by Dr. Samoon Ahmad, provides essential information on the status of current clinical studies and information on the pharmacology of psychedelics.

Global investigations, task forces, and legislative bodies are currently addressing the use of psychedelic substances for the treatment of addiction, depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder, but most clinicians know very little about these treatment options. This timely resource addresses what clinicians need to know in a concise, easy-to-digest format, perfect for psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and primary care providers at all levels of experience and training.
  • Covers the historical and social backgrounds, regulatory history, and clinical effects of numerous psychedelics, as well as the currently proposed guidelines for co-administered psychotherapy
  • Provides up-to-date coverage of the pharmacology of psychedelics, including potential indications, pharmacokinetics, contraindications, and side effects
  • Equips you to counter misinformation and better care for patients who may be pursuing psychedelic treatment options without the guidance of a physician or trained therapist
  • Shares the knowledge and expertise of Dr. Samoon Ahmad, editor/author of multiple Kaplan & Sadock’s Pocket Handbooks, as well as timely books on medical cannabis, COVID-19, and more
