About this title

Synopsis

This all-new, clinical reference guide provides an explicit approach to drug therapy which takes into account the major factors to be considered when initiating, altering or terminating drug therapy. Critical evaluations of drug therapies provide cogent reasons for choosing or not choosing specific drugs and clarifying conflicting data.

Divided into two sections: Section 1: Drug Therapy for Disease States...provides suggestions for the use of drugs in the treatment of over 50 different disease states or conditions. Section 2: Drug Monographs...information on over 300 commonly used drugs listed alphabetically by generic name...plus coverage of adverse effects, interactions, contraindications, length of use, route, dosage, cost, and more!

Chapter 11: A Special Interest Chapter on Drug-Induced Adverse Reactions...gives specific approaches for the treatment of five specific drug-induced adverse reactions.

Question and answer format helps the reader achieve the best outcome with guidelines for prescribing and monitoring the effects of drug therapy on a day-to-day basis.

Facilitates additional research in the literature with references to recent publications.

Covers US and Canadian drugs.
