Abstract

No one drug is specific for the management of violent behavior. Rather, the pharmacologic treatment of aggression is best approached by identifying and treating the underlying psychopathology, with the expectation that the violent behavior will resolve secondarily. Pharmacologic management is probably most successful when other treatment modalities such as family, group, and individual psychotherapies are used concurrently.
