'Deprescribing medications is a necessary skill for all clinical psychopharmacologists, and is not a trivial task. Drs. Strawn and Stahl impart their collective wisdom as they meld their own experiences with what the medical literature informs us, offering advice for implementing winning strategies. Sagely eliminating medications that interfere with others is essential to the practice of optimal, and personalized, care. The key concept is that gradual dose reduction is often required to avoid 'rebound effects' but there are others that can be safely stopped abruptly - the wise practitioner will know which is which. Organized alphabetically, together with an index by drug class, the book is user friendly and thus easy to consult. Profusely illustrated with the award-winning figures that have made Stahl's series of books from Cambridge University Press famous, this book belongs on the shelves (and e-readers) of all clinicians involved in the care of people receiving psychotropic medications.'
