review a minimum of five academic articles and map out your research on your drug, by creating a table or word narrative document that includes the information you found on your drug of choice. Include the following for each article: the author, the date, article name, location of the published source, and page number.
Here is a sample template for both formats:

| Brown, A. | 2022 | “Off-label Uses of Mood Stabilizers in Bipolar Disorder” | International Journal of Psychiatry | pp. 102-115 |
| Davis, L., et al. | 2021 | “Mechanisms of Action of SSRIs and SNRIs” | Neuroscience Review | pp. 78-91 |
| Taylor, P. | 2020 | “Side Effects and Monitoring of Antidepressant Therapy” | Journal of Psychiatric Nursing | pp. 150-165 |
| Wilson, K., & Green, M. | 2019 | “Contraindications and Risks Associated with Antidepressants” | Medical Journal of Therapeutics | pp. 200-215 |
