This concise clinical guide shows how pharmacology can be integrated with traditional psychotherapy approaches to PTSD.

Authors present common assessment tools and strategies, synthesize implications from research on all existing pharmacologic treatments for PTSD including antidepressants, anxiolytics, and antipsychotic medications, and present clear guidelines for related conditions such as insomnia and substance abuse.

Treatment of older adults and others with complicated presentations is also emphasized. Suitable for psychologists and social workers who may be unfamiliar with pharmacological approaches to PTSD, as well as psychiatrists and other medical personnel who may be less familiar with the best empirically-validated forms of psychotherapy.

Features:
- Reviews pharmacologic treatments for PTSD including antidepressants, anxiolytics, and antipsychotic medications.
- Presents comprehensive advice for clinical treatment, from assessment and diagnosis, to treatments for related symptoms and disorders such as insomnia and substance abuse.
