Synopsis
Building on the success and popularity of previous editions, Pocket Prescriber 2009-10 has been fully updated to incorporate new drugs, to remove drugs no longer on the market and to reflect recent changes in dosages and prescribing practice.
It fills a niche by providing the most essential clinical pharmacology information that busy clinicians need at their fingertips - by focusing on the 500 key drugs that are most commonly prescribed, in an A to Z listing, the book avoids overwhelming the reader with information and remains user-friendly.
Information provided includes dosages, indications, contraindications, side-effects and interactions.
An important section of the book deals with commonly-encountered prescribing problems, selection issues where there are many similar drugs to choose from (such as antibiotics and antihypertensives), and guidance on coping with a wide variety of emergency situations (such as anaphylaxis and overdoses).
Principally aimed at junior doctors, the book is also an invaluable and accessible revision aid for medical students and a practical handbook for nurse and pharmacist prescribers.
