- Abstract
Despite all efforts even in the half of the first quarter of the twenty-first century, psychiatric disorders are still lifelong conditions, which cannot be treated fully and mostly continue to be chronic. Therefore, psychiatric disorders and their treatments require more skills and care than physical disorders. In the area of preclinical research in psychopharmacology, clinical trials, research, meta-analyses, and clinician experiences provide useful information for psychopharmacological applications. Although there is still a long distance to cover andat times opposing views, developments in the field of psychopharmacology are rapid and satisfactory. In this review, current issues in psychopharmacology, such as effectiveness, efficacy, new avenues of enquiry, side effects, adverse effects, and drug interactions of psychotropics, generic and reference drug issues, and pharmacoeconomics will be discussed.
