Diabetes mellitus is a disease that affects millions of people and their families worldwide, and is increasingly recognized to be a growing public health problem among industrialized nations. Diabetes has been associated with a variety of co-occurring conditions, including cardiovascular disease, elevated lipid serum levels, and more recently, a variety of psychiatric disorders. In addition to this, the disease has also been linked with the pharmacologic treatment of psychiatric disorders. As a result, mental health professionals working in a variety of settings will increasingly encounter patients who have co-occurring psychiatric disorders and diabetes mellitus. Responding to this, Psychiatric Disorders and Diabetes Mellitus: includes current evidence-based guideline recommendations regarding the monitoring of metabolic factors in patients being treated with psychotropic agents reviews the relevant literature to assist the clinician in obtaining multidisciplinary care for their patients covers the impact of alcohol use and abuse on metabolic factors discusses the role of diet, nutrition, exercise and motivational therapy in diabetes management outlines effective models of care that address both diabetes and psychiatric disorders. A highly useful work in a growing area, Psychiatric Disorders and Diabetes Mellitus is an up-to-date reference for mental health professionals concerned with providing quality care to patients with co-occurring diabetes and psychiatric disorders.
