Description
Real-world and clinical trial data support that clozapine is the only effective antipsychotic for treatment resistant schizophrenia and other severe mental illnesses. Clozapine also reduces rates of suicidality, psychiatric hospitalization and all-cause mortality. However, clozapine is underutilized for two reasons: misunderstandings of its efficacy benefits and misapprehension of, limited knowledge or misinformation about the management of treatment related risks and adverse effects. In response to worldwide efforts to promote clozapine use, this user-friendly Handbook provides clinicians with evidence-based approaches for patient management, as well as logical approaches to the management of clinical situations and adverse effects. It outlines clearly the rationale for specific management decisions and prioritises the options based on this logic. This Handbook is designed for use by clinicians worldwide and is essential reading for all mental health care professionals.
Reviews
Review “John William Yee has made a major personal effort to design preventive
methods for this difficult problem, and these methods are effective. It is
always difficult to pioneer an alternative treatment in a field as
conservative as optometry, and it takes a bold ‘soul’ to take these first
steps. John has made a strong personal commitment to his research. . . . In
this book, he offers this knowledge to professionals. . . . His pioneering
development of Ortho C shows promise to effectively prevent nearsightedness
at the threshold. His standard of professionalism and his commitment to
support the welfare of others sets a high example for all of us.”- From the
Foreword by Otis S. Brown, Author of How to Avoid Nearsightedness,
Waynesboro, PA, United States “A timely publication as the optical
professions are currently addressing the explosion of myopia since the
1970s and it is predicted that almost 50% of the world’s population will be
myopic by 2050. Today, myopia control is front and center for eye care
professionals looking for solutions to control and reverse this condition.
They will find that John’s research and subsequent therapy will support
their practice and expanding knowledge. John’s dedication to this
‘epidemic’ is an inspiration. I highly recommended it as required reading
for all opticians!” – Lorne Kashin, RO, Executive Director, Ontario
