There is a Cochrane review about pharmacological interventions. It looks at 8 different studies involving drugs as treatment for AsPD. The review concluded that there is little good quality evidence for what may be an effective treatment, these studies did find that bromocriptine, nortriptyline, and phenytoin were superior to placebos. This could be added to the treatment section and the cochrane review could be added to the sources.

There is another cochrane review on the psychological interventions for AsPD. This review examined 11 different studies. Contingency Management and CBT should be added to this page as possible treatment options, and this review should be added as a new source.

I think including a couple of famous individuals who have been confirmed diagnosed with Anti-Social Personality Disorder could aid in the understanding of the disorder to someone without a psychological background. Elvenhelm ( talk) 16:54, 26 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Be very careful when adding such examples, make sure it's extremely well cited and preferably don't use biographies of living persons. The Blue Rider 10:57, 2 October 2023 (UTC) reply

do we need this many details on a different disorder? I understand its connection to ASPD, but this feels very detailed. I'm a newbie at this so i don't know Bree1699 ( talk) 19:39, 26 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Seems reasonable enough to me, conduct disorder is the ASPD equivalent for children. The Blue Rider 20:09, 26 March 2024 (UTC) reply
