Drug Benefits and Risks
This updated and revised 2nd edition of "Drug Benefits and Risks" is an inclusive reference exploring the scientific basis and practice of drug therapy. The key concept is to look at the balance between the benefits and risks of drugs, but in this context also highlighting the social impact which drugs have in modern societies. Taking an evidence-based approach to the problem, the practice of clinical pharmacology and pharmacotherapy in the developing as well as the developed world is examined. For this purpose, the book covers general clinical pharmacology, pharmacology of various drug groups and the treatments specific to various diseases; the book gives guidance on how doctors should act so that drugs can be used effectively and safely; and it encourages the rational use of drugs in society.This publication brings together a large amount of excellent content that will be invaluable for anyone working within, or associated with, the field of clinical pharmacology and pharmacotherapy - undergraduates, postgraduates, regulatory authorities and the pharmaceutical industry.

Introduction to Reference Sources in the Health Sciences, Sixth Edition
Prepared in collaboration with the Medical Library Association, this completely updated, revised, and expanded edition lists classic and up-to-the-minute print and electronic resources in the health sciences, helping librarians find the answers that library users seek. Included are electronic versions of traditionally print reference sources, trustworthy electronic-only resources, and resources that library users can access from home or on the go through freely available websites or via library licenses. In this benchmark guide, the authors Include new chapters on health information seeking, point-of-care sources, and global health sources Focus on works that can be considered foundational or essential, in both print and electronic formats Address questions librarians need to consider in developing and maintaining their reference collections When it comes to questions involving the health sciences, this valuable resource will point both library staff and the users they serve in the right direction.
The In Vivo Study of Drug Action
Pharmacodynamics is the oldest in vitro element of pharmacology and the youngest in vivo element. However, over the last decade there has been significant progress in understanding the kinetics of drug action in vivo and pharmacodynamics now ranks with pharmacokinetics in the content of clinical pharmacology journals. The purpose of this book is to link theory and practice of in vivo pharmacodynamic studies. This presents a major challenge due to the multi-faceted nature of the kinetics of drug actions. The first step involves identification of those effects which represent the actions of a drug using mathematical models in combination with classical receptor theory. Subsequently, these effects must be quantified in a precise and reproducible manner and the pharmacokinetcs of the drug and its active metabolites must be accurately described. Finally, realistic models must be developed which identify the site of action and can describe and predict the time course of drug action under physiological and pathological conditions. As in the development of most sciences the theory is in advance of the practice.
Side Effects of Drugs Annual 18
Under the supervision of the series editors, an international team of expert authors have gathered together the latest information on adverse drug effects from the international literature. In addition to describing new reports of adverse drug effects, the authors have subjected those reports to critical analysis, setting them into context in terms of clinical relevance and importance, and cross-referring to previous reports where necessary. New adverse effects are reported and evaluated and previously reported adverse effects are re-evaluated in the light of the most recent information. A special feature is the reviews, in which selected adverse effects are discussed in depth. The use of the book is enhanced by three separate indexes, allowing the reader to enter the text by drug name, adverse effect name, or drug interaction.
