Book Synopsis Psychopharmacology and Women by : Margaret F. Jensvold
Book excerpt: "Psychopharmacology and Women: Sex, Gender and HormoHHnes" brings together in one volume much of the information currently available on sex-related factors in psychopharmacology. Chapters by recognised leaders in the field cover topics such as basic pharmacokinetic mechanisms of psychotropics in women, associations among endogenous hormones and neurotransmitters, and interactions of psychotropics with exogenous sex steroid hormones to psychopharmacological considerations relating to the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and lactation, and the menopause. In addition to providing comprehensive reviews of new theories and treatments, chapter authors point out where gaps in knowledge remain.
