Glendale, CA / ACCESSWIRE / Jul 11, 2014 / Audio-Digest Foundation Announces the Release of Psychology Volume 03, Issue 07: The Other Side of Psychopharmacology: Ethics and Practice.

The goal of this program is to improve the clinical practice and application of psychopharmacology. After hearing and assimilating this program, the clinician will be better able to:

1) Assess evidence about the efficacy of commonly used classes of psychiatric medications.
2) Distinguish medication-related side effects and withdrawal syndromes from symptoms of a psychiatric condition.
3) Identify neurologic and neurochemical changes associated with specific medications.
4) Recognize deleterious effects associated with the use of particular psychopharmacologic agents in specific disorders.
5) Apply a drug-centered model to create a more socially just approach to psychopharmacology

The original programs were presented by Thomas L. Murray Jr, PhD, LMFT, Clinical Assistant Professor, School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine, Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, NC; Director of Counseling and Testing Services, University of North Carolina School of Arts, Winston-Salem; Contributing Faculty, Mental Health Counseling, Walden University, Minneapolis, MN.
