New Resource - Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines
We are delighted to announce that the Library has taken out an annual subscription to this important online resource. Now in its 14th edition, Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines in Psychiatry is the essential evidence-based handbook on the safe and effective prescribing of psychotropic agents. Covering both common and complex prescribing situations encountered in day-to-day clinical practice, this comprehensive resource provides expert guidance on drug choice, minimum and maximum doses, adverse effects, switching medications, prescribing for special patient groups, and more.
Access is available at this link and remotely with an OpenAthens account:
