520 |a“Research shows that the prevalence of psychotropic medication use is 2 – 6 times greater among incarcerated offenders compared to the general population, and highest among incarcerated women offenders. We drew a purposive sample of thirteen Canadian federal institutions representing each of the five regions, different security levels, and men’s and women’s designated facilities. From a sample of N = 468 inmates files, information on the names of all psychotropic medications prescribed, indications for use, dosage, frequency and route of administration was retrieved. Designation of approved or off-label use of medications was determined by consulting three main sources: (1) the Health Canada (2016) Drug Product Database, (2) the Canadian Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties 2016, and (3) the American Hospital Formulary Service Drug Information 2016"--Executive summary, p. [iv].
