Book Description

Pharmacoeconomics is a new word but decisions about which treatments are available within any health care system have always been influenced by the availability of resources. Today, the economics of care and treatment are major issues for governments and health services throughout the world. This is the first text to provide an economic evaluation of the use of drugs in psychiatry. The authors have reviewed the world literature on the subject and include all the most recent data. With the aim of ensuring that resources are used to the best effect and thus improve the health and quality of life of mental health patients, this practical handbook is an important text for psychiatrists and GPs.
