Lecture Notes on Clinical Pharmacology

Lecture Notes on Clinical Pharmacology is a core text on how and when to use drugs in the practice of medicine. It bridges the gap between laboratory science and clinical practice, and promotes the safe and effective use of drugs to optimize patient health and minimize risk. This edition features a new chapter on travel medicine and the problems of travel-associated diseases, and completely rewritten sections on thrombosis and self-poisoning. All other sections have been reviewed and updated with details of both new and withdrawn drugs.
