Hazelden's bestselling program for addressing and treating co-occurring disorders is now better than ever. Updated to meet DSM-5 classifications, and with a beautiful new design, new titles that help you immediately find what you need, this evidence-based program addresses issues that directly impact clients living with a substance use disorder and non-severe mental illness.

Medication Management is written specifically for physicians, clinicians, and other medical staff and focuses on the knowledge and skills for medication treatment of clients living with a co-occurring disorder. Evidence- and consensus-based practices are provided to help medical personnel make informed decisions about prescribing medications.

Part 1 covers: psychiatric symptoms of intoxication and withdrawal; general principles of medication management; treatment strategies tailored to the stages of change; ways to collaborate with the client to prepare a medication plan; and techniques to encourage clients’ adherence to the medication plan. Part 2 is a comprehensive medication reference that includes information about specific medications used to treat patients with co-occurring disorders.

The accompanying CD-ROM includes information sheets on specific medications as well as reproducible client handouts.
