Prescription of psychotropic drugs by non-psychiatrist specialists in Morocco: current practices and educational needs
Our study shows gaps in knowledge of non-psychiatric specialists, which raises concern regarding their ability to care for mental disorders. Educational efforts should be made to improve teaching of psychiatry from the undergraduate level. Continuing Medical Education should be tailored to the specific needs and preferred learning methods of non-psychiatric physicians.
