Don't miss the opportunity to update your knowledge in Pharmacological Intervention in Neurotic Disorders to improve your professional practice”

Undoubtedly, the primary objective of Pharmacology is to benefit the patient, and to do so as rationally and strictly as it is usually done to reach the correct diagnosis. Psychologists can help with their expertise in the diagnosis and prescription of the most appropriate medication for each patient. In the last forty years, the development of chemistry, physiology and biochemistry, and analytical technology has made it possible to isolate highly active products from natural sources and, above all, design and synthesize new compounds, analyze their actions and effects at all possible levels of organization of the living substance, and learn about the processes that follow their passage through the organism. This has led to an explosion in the production of therapeutically active pharmaceutical products, an accumulation of information that is not always easy to assimilate, and, above all, the possibility of rigorous, objective and individualized application to the characteristics of each patient. 

Delay, in 1959, defined psychotropic pharmaceuticals as "chemical substances of natural or synthetic origin, which possess a psychological tropism, i.e., they are capable of modifying mental activity without prejudging the type of modification". Anglo-Saxon authors define psychotropic pharmaceuticals as "chemical substances that modify sensations, mood, consciousness and other psychological and behavioral functions".

This program covers all the current pharmacological knowledge along with the whole universe of expertise that psychologists need to be able to develop their role as psychotherapists in interaction and total coordination with doctors in order to, from there, improve the patient's treatment.
