by M.T.S. Jeffrey DeVido, M.D., M.D. Carla Marienfeld, M.D. Henry R. Kranzler, M.A. Petros Levounis, M.D.

Global challenges—public health crises, climate change, racial and socioeconomic tensions—have intensified the substance use and overdose epidemic. The Clinical Manual of Addiction Psychopharmacology, now in its third edition, asserts that substance misuse and addictive disorders, despite their complex origins, are treatable conditions.
Revised for the first time in a decade, this manual is filled with the latest scientific advancements and practical guidance for today’s addiction psychiatry and medicine workforce. Organized by substance class, it offers quick access to essential information. New chapters in this volume discuss social and systemic perspectives on pharmacotherapy; emerging treatments for non-substance-related addictive disorders such as gambling; nonstandard pharmacotherapies, including herbal supplements; and interventional treatments such as transcranial magnetic stimulation.
Every chapter reflects the evolving social and clinical landscape, focusing on the current state of research and clinical treatment recommendations.
The Clinical Manual of Addiction Psychopharmacology remains an essential resource for all those seeking to support the clinical needs of their patients and communities.
