Chris Aiken’s guide connects drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics with practical considerations in psychiatric prescribing. Its coverage includes medication interactions involving food, drink, and recreational drugs, as well as topics such as gender and ethnicity in drug metabolism.

The subject is specifically the ways psychotropic medications are processed and how those processes can affect medication decisions.
