Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Since it was first published in 1958, Trounce's Clinical Pharmacology has been the go-to resource for health professionals who prescribe as well as administer medications. Now in its nineteenth edition, the text has been fully updated to reflect the breadth and complexity of modern practice.
The book provides everything the reader needs to know when becoming a prescriber. The text is organised by body system, making it easy to follow, and covers considerations for different patient categories as well as the management of pain, cancer and infection, substance abuse and complementary and alternative medicines.
With a strong clinical orientation and written by practising clinicians, essential information is delivered in an engaging and friendly style that will ensure this book's continued popularity with nurses and allied health professionals for many years to come.
