Multidrug Abuse

  • Chapter
Drug and Alcohol Abuse

Part of the book series: Critical Issues in Psychiatry ((CIPS))

Abstract

The format of this chapter differs slightly from that of the rest of the text; it emphasizes some major types of drug interactions. Because the focus is on the relationships among types of drugs of abuse, careful reading of this chapter will give you an opportunity to review much of the material already presented. In other words, chapter 13 reviews the general lessons given in this text about drug interactions.
