Medicines can have both desirable and undesirable effects and prescribing them involves weighing their risks and benefits. This module discusses some of the unwanted effects of psychiatric medications, exploring their categorisation and pharmacological underpinnings and highlighting how we can prevent as well as recognise and treat ADRs when they occur.
