Allied Health Press Clinical Pharmacology - Allied Health Press Medical Reference

Clinical Pharmacology by Allied Health Press provides healthcare professionals with essential guidance on translating pharmacologic science into safe, effective patient care decisions. The book covers pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in clinically relevant terms, then applies these principles to practical dosing, therapeutic drug monitoring, and management of adverse reactions. Comprehensive chapters address drug-drug and drug-disease interactions with practical mitigation strategies, whilst also exploring the complete lifecycle of medicines from clinical trials through post-marketing surveillance. Healthcare practitioners will find valuable guidance on prescribing in special populations, including patients with renal or hepatic impairment and pregnant patients, making this an indispensable resource for clinical decision-making.
