Beschreibung
This completely revised and expanded edition of Drugs in Use presents pharmacists with a series of 31 clinical studies which have been designed to illustrate how pharmacists can optimise drug therapy in response to the needs of individual patients. In each case, patient information is interspersed with questions suitable for self-study or group discussion. Answers to the questions and a pharmaceutical care plan for the patient under discussion follow.
New chapters are included on colorectal surgery, cholecystectomy, cystic fibrosis, intensive care therapy, respiratory distress and necrotising enterocolitis in the newborn, peripheral blood progenitor cell transplantation, schizophrenia and depression.
Drugs in Use can help both pharmacists and pharmacy students develop the ability to make drug-related decisions which use their specialist knowledge and skills to the best effect, whether in hospital or community pharmacy.
From reviews of the first edition:
". will have much value in reorientating and augmenting the knowledge of the pharmacists who is already engaged in clinical pharmacy; an excellent manual in training preregistration students. it goes a great way indeed to prepare pharmacists to exercise a clinical role with confidence and pharmaceutical skill."
(International Pharmacy Journal)
"I recommend all clinical teachers to have this on their shelves."
