      abstract = {This book is a practical guide for psychiatrists to use  when treating patients for medical issues. Over the past  10-20 years, the number of medications prescribed for  psychiatric illnesses has steadily increased, and  psychiatric practitioners are frequently called upon to  manage medical issues and side effects that result from  psychotropic treatment. Covering a wide range of conditions  from thyroid disorders to cardiac disease, this book is a  helpful resource for understanding common adverse medical  effects that occur when psychotropic drugs are  administered. Presented in a practical format, each chapter  discusses management of a particular medical problem or  side effect and then provides a summary and flowchart of  the major points highlighted in that chapter. Each chapter  contains an overview of key medications causing a  particular side effect. The book also includes special  topics such as psychotropic prescribing in medical illness  and tips on electrocardiographic interpretation. This  easy-to-reference book aims to bridge the gap between  medicine and psychiatry by elaborating on medical  conditions seen in routine outpatient psychiatric practice.  It serves as an invaluable tool for mental health  providers, nurses, health educators, and pharmacologists  alike.},
