‘Antipsychotic prescribing patterns in children and adolescents attending Australian general practice in 2011 and 2017’

Open Access paper from JCPP Advances

Antipsychotics are increasingly prescribed to children and adolescents worldwide, but little is known about reasons for prescribing. We aimed to examine patterns of paediatric antipsychotic prescribing in Australian primary care services in 2011 and 2017, including diagnoses, sociodemographic characteristics, off-label prescribing, and psychotropic co-prescribing.
