Description

Medical Pharmacology and Therapeutics provides comprehensive coverage of pharmacology and therapeutics for medical and healthcare students. This textbook takes a systems-based approach, ordering information according to body systems and disease areas, rather than by drug class. It has been fully updated to include the latest scientific understanding of drug action and administration, as well as current best practice in prescribing medications. The book aligns with national guidelines, including those from the British National Formulary (BNF) and NICE, ensuring that information is relevant and up-to-date. It also features comprehensive drug compendia, allowing all drugs to be identified and placed within their respective classes. This edition includes new discussions on the pathophysiology and management of shock, chronic pain, and COVID-19 treatment. Suitable for medical, nursing, and other healthcare students throughout their training, this textbook provides thorough support for learning and revision with extensive self-assessment questions.
