Anti Addiction Medications

Anti-Addiction Medications: A Clinical Perspective is a new guide to make clinicians aware of the anti-addiction medications currently available, discuss the pros and cons of each medication, offer basic prescribing criteria, discuss the potential side effects of these medications, and provide an understanding of appropriate follow-up care. The pamphlet is for any clinician or addiction treatment professional interested in reducing relapse and improving recovery success rates by integrating medication use with treatment protocols. It examines the limitations and successes of the FDA-approved medications currently available. The pamphlet packages specific information on each medication, including the type of patient who can be best helped, the form of medication, how it works, research findings, the recommended dose, warnings, and guidelines for administration and ongoing patient care.
