This new edition was recognized as a highly commended title by the British Medical Association at the 2017 BMA Medical Book Awards . Regarded by both students and instructors, Principles of Pharmacology: The Pathophysiologic Basis of Drug Therapy, 4th Edition , offers an integrated mechanism-based and systems-based approach to contemporary pharmacology and drug development. An easy-to-follow format helps first- and second-year students grasp challenging concepts quickly and efficiently. Each chapter presents a clinical vignette illustrating a therapeutic problem within a physiologic or biochemical system; followed by a discussion of the biochemistry, physiology, and pathophysiology of the system; and concluding with a presentation of the pharmacology of the drugs and drug classes that activate or inhibit the system by interacting with specific molecular and cellular targets. Chapters are integrated into sections that focus on organ systems and therapeutic areas of highest importance. Clear, concise illustrations highlight key points, and drug summary tables offer quick access to essential information. The Fourth Edition features:
<ul>
<li>Comprehensive updates to all chapters, including recently approved drugs</li>
<li>Nearly 40 popular and practical Drug Summary Tables with state-of-the-art information on clinical applications, serious and common adverse effects, contraindications, and therapeutic considerations</li>
<li>A new chapter on drug transporters , and extensively revised information on drug-receptor interactions, pharmacodynamics, drug toxicity, and pharmacogenomics</li>
<li>Key changes to Section 1: Fundamental Principles of Pharmacology, which now provides a comprehensive framework for material in all subsequent chapters</li>
<li>Hundreds of meticulously updated and colorized illustrations , including many that are new or substantially modified to highlight new understanding of physiologic, pathophysiologic, and pharmacologic mechanisms</li>

Pharmacology

Principios de farmacología. Bases fisiopatológicas del tratamiento farmacológico ofrece un enfoque integral, basado en sistemas y mecanismos, de la farmacología contemporánea y la investigación, así como del desarrollo de nuevos agentes farmacológicos. Para esta cuarta edición se han realizado cambios importantes en los capítulos de receptores, así como en los de farmacocinética y farmacodinamia. El contenido y las evaluaciones se han actualizado y revisado de forma integral y se ha incorporado nueva información entre la que destacan los avances más recientes en áreas de gran desarrollo terapéutico como la farmacogenética y la farmacogenómica. La obra se organiza en seis secciones que abordan los principios básicos de los diferentes agentes farmacológicos organizados por sistema o sitio de acción y tres secciones adicionales sobre el desarrollo de nuevos agentes, toxicología y el futuro de la disciplina. Cada uno de sus apartados se caracteriza por su formato de lectura sencilla y amigable, así como por su estructura que facilita la correlación entre los aspectos químico, bioquímico y fisiológico de la farmacología con su aplicación en la práctica clínica.
