Childhood and
Adolescent Bipolar Disorder Present Special Treatment Challenges

pharmacologic therapy for children with bipolar disorder is combination
pharmacotherapy, .........says
about one third of patients, at most, do well with monotherapy of a single
mood stabilizer for bipolar disorder. "The literature is consistent on this
point. The younger the age at onset, often the less likely it is that the
patient will have a robust response to a mood stabilizer. With children,
adolescents, and young adults, not only are the majority of patients going
to need multiple medications, but the vast majority will need them."
