While a given diagnosis may suggest principle mechanisms under prescription guidelines, standard treatment of psychosis is unfeasible due to no two patients suffering from an identical illness. This text therefore aims to contrast the one-size-fits-all treatment that general medicine has taken for granted, and instead focuses on building psychiatrist and patient relationships to foster individual treatment plans"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A guide to treating psychosis that provides information on drug options and side-effects in order to allow for weighing treatment options knowledgably</b></p> <p><i>The Maudsley Guidelines on Advanced Prescribing in Psychosis</i> offers a resource that puts the focus on the need to treat the individual needs of a patient.
