Examining the Long-Term Impacts of Psychotropic Drugs and Considerations for People Discontinuing Treatment.

Psychotropic drugs dominate the mental healthcare landscape. This is despite contention over their proposed mechanism of action, concerns for their adverse effects, and questionable effectiveness, especially over the long term. Mental health nurses are routinely involved in administering psychotropic drugs, observing for and managing adverse effects, and providing information and support to people prescribed these agents. This critique explores the current understanding of the mechanism of action for psychotropic drugs, evidence for their effectiveness, adverse effect burden and implications for long term use. The role of mental health nurses in deprescribing and supporting people to discontinue treatment is considered.

期刊介绍： Issues in Mental Health Nursing is a refereed journal designed to expand psychiatric and mental health nursing knowledge. It deals with new, innovative approaches to client care, in-depth analysis of current issues, and empirical research. Because clinical research is the primary vehicle for the development of nursing science, the journal presents data-based articles on nursing care provision to clients of all ages in a variety of community and institutional settings. Additionally, the journal publishes theoretical papers and manuscripts addressing mental health promotion, public policy concerns, and educational preparation of mental health nurses. International contributions are welcomed.
