Summary
Hippocrates' famous phrase "First do no harm" is one of the earliest mantras for doctors when it comes to their method treating patients. Yet so many modern psychiatrists' approach throws this rule out the window and instead jumps straight to prescribing medications which are often unhelpful, addictive, and even potentially dangerous. Why is this meds-first approach so common? In this episode, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen discuss the importance of always starting with the least toxic, most effective treatments when it comes to treating brain and mental health issues.
