Modern Pharmacology With Clinical Applications
The classic--now revised every two years! This affordable softbound is concise enough to focus on the essentials, yet detailed enough to ensure accuracy. Clearly-ordered sections address drugs affecting the autonomic nervous system, cardiovascular system, and central nervous system; drugs used to treat inflammatory disorders; chemotherapy; drugs affecting the endocrine system; and additional, important drugs such as histamines and vitamins. Numerous illustrations show correlations and mechanisms of action. Useful graphs and charts supplement the text.
