Clinicians recognize that monitoring psychotropic levels provides
invaluable information to optimize therapy and track treatment
adherence, but they lack formal training specifically focused on
the use of plasma antipsychotic levels for these purposes. As new
technologies emerge to rapidly provide these results, the
opportunity to integrate this information into clinical care will
grow. This practical handbook clarifies confusing concepts in the
literature on use of antipsychotic levels, providing clear
explanations for the logic underlying clinically relevant concepts
such as the therapeutic threshold and the point of futility, and
how these apply to individual antipsychotics. It offers accessible
information on the expected correlation between dosages and trough
levels, and also provides a clear explanation of how to use
antipsychotic levels for monitoring oral antipsychotic adherence,
and methods to help clinicians differentiate between poor adherence
and variations in drug metabolism. An essential resource for
psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and mental health
professionals worldwide.
