Long-Acting Injectable Medications in Mental Health describes the currently available long-acting injectable (LAI) medications to treat mental health and substance use disorders. Each chapter details how the medication's LAI technology utilized by the formulation, the dosing parameters, including missed dosing, pharmacokinetic properties, drug interactions, adverse effects, and preparation and administration instructions. Additionally, each medication chapter describes the efficacy of the formulation in comparison to other LAIs and oral medications. The book provides insight into how to approach a patient to engage in a conversation regarding LAI options. Switching strategies between agents and discontinuation options for patients are also included. Clinical pearls and tips on the role of these medications in clinical practice are provided to assist providers and pharmacists with the selection of agents and best practices regarding their use. A chapter is devoted to the use of LAIs in special populations (pregnant and lactating patients, older adults, pediatrics).
