Conduct Disorder (CD) is a pervasive childhood psychiatric condition characterized by a persistent pattern of antisocial, aggressive, and rule-breaking behaviors. This review article examines the behavioral patterns observed in individuals with CD and explores the various treatment approaches used to manage and mitigate these behaviors. Emphasis is placed on the role of early diagnosis and intervention, as well as the effectiveness of both pharmacological and therapeutic strategies. The review also highlights the significance of family, social, and schoolbased interventions and their impact on improving outcomes for affected individuals. Understanding the multifaceted nature of CD is crucial for developing comprehensive treatment plans that address the diverse needs of these individuals and reduce the long-term consequences of the disorder.
