Autor Manuchair Ebadien Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2007
· Novel therapies including the use of peptides in the treatment of peptic ulcers and IBS as well as new information on the use of melatonin in sleep disorders
· Discoveries in molecular medicine, such as suicide gene therapy, monoclonal antibodies, and drug interference with signal transduction pathway therapeutics
The book offers concise and informative A-Z drug facts in an encyclopedia format and contains brief descriptions of conditions, diseases, and disorders presented along with their applicable treatments. The completely expanded introductory chapters contain short review entries on the pharmacokinetic basis of therapeutics, concepts of pharmacodynamics, and the principles of drug-drug interactions and drug-food interactions. They include discussions on state-of-the-art treatments such as immunotherapy of cancer, antisense therapies, suicide gene therapy, and pharmacogenomics, which is leading to tailor-made drugs based on genetic makeup.
The second edition of the Desk Reference of Clinical Pharmacology contains more entries, up-to-date information on revolutionizing therapeutics, and an exhaustive list of maladies and their treatments. It is a definitive reference for any member of a healthcare delivery team and a valuable resource for those involved in the study of clinical pharmacology.

Recenzii
"…The alphabetical arrangement of all headings makes the text extremely accessible… Many of the individual drug entries are quite comprehensive and represent the best of what is expected of a text on pharmacology. The second edition follows the same basic organization as the first edition: brief introductory chapters followed by a series of alphabetically organized entries… The second edition represents an effort at expansion over the 1998 first edition. Expansion and improvements include naming of Orientation Articles, improved illustrations, and, as noted earlier, addition of monographs on immunotherapies and other topics. The Desk Reference of Clinical Pharmacology, 2nd Edition, is an introductory pharmacology reference best suited for a quick look-up of select topics…."

Descriere
Designed specifically for physicians and other healthcare professionals, this volume features complete yet concise descriptions of the properties of every drug used in clinical practice. The second edition follows the same basic organization as its predecessor: brief introductory chapters followed by a series of alphabetically organized entries. It provides short reviews of such topics as the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic basis of therapeutics, adverse reactions, and drug-drug, herb-drug, and food-drug interactions. Adoptive immunotherapy, antisense therapeutics, drug metabolism and transport, and pharmacogenomics are also discussed.
