Description

This collection of medication information handouts in print and on CD-ROM is a practical resource for everyday use. Developed at the Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago, the handouts cover today's most effective pediatric psychopharmacologies for behavioural and emotional disorders. The handouts help reinforce clinical counselling during office visits. In addition they serve as authoritative references for families, with answers to critical questions that come up between monitoring visits.
