Therefore, the Knowledge Centre for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry bundles in this Formulary advancing knowledge in the field of psychopharmacology in children and adolescents, with lyrics about individual resources into categories.

A few notes and warnings are in place. These texts have been prepared with utmost care, however, they are not made for the purpose of completeness, but in addition to the information in the textbooks (eg ChemSpider or textbooks). Many psychotropic prescribing child and adolescent psychiatrists are from adult psychiatry. The large amount of knowledge about kinetics, effect, safety and competition gained in adults, usually lacking in children and adolescents. so one must be familiar with the literature on psychotropic drugs in adults. The official leaflet (Ib) lyrics and recording situations can be found on the MEB website: www.cbg-meb.nl
No formal rights can be derived from these texts. In individual situations, there will always be reasons to deviate from the recommendations. It's good to be here to make notes in the file.
