Popis: | Bipolar disorder is a serious psychiatric illness that usually emerges during adolescence or early adulthood, and patients are likely to experience recurrent episodes throughout their lives. The treatment of bipolar disorder is complicated by the difficulty in distinguishing between subtly different disease subtypes (bipolar I, bipolar II, rapid cycling and mixed episodes), each of which is associated with a different probability of treatment success. Furthermore, physicians are faced with an array of treatment options that includes mood stabilisers, antidepressants, and typical and atypical antipsychotics. |
