I would a have to say of all the books on this subject in my library (which includes the massive The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics), Bennett's is the most frequently referenced. No surgery or pharmacy department worthy of the name should be without a copy of the book.'   'Used this book for my prescribing very useful.'   'This book is the best therapeutics pharmacology text I have come across. It is especially useful for prescribers and medical students as it has all the essentials you need to know about most drugs in use.'   'This is an excellent pharmacology text book covering all the major therapeutic topics in a pleasantly readable fashion. The book covers many areas, including drug development and the pharmacokinetic aspects of drugs that are relevant to everyday prescribing, benefiting from the input of a great number of practising doctors with their accompanying years of clinical experience. The book contains numerous amusing references, which certainly managed to stimulate my interest in what can easily become a rather dull and complicated subject. I would highly recommend this book to clinical medical students and indeed to anyone in the medical profession.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSection 1: General   1 Clinical pharmacology   2 Topics in drug therapy   3 Discovery and development of drugs   4 Evaluation of drugs in humans   5 Health Technology Assessment   6 Regulation of medicines   7 Classification and naming of drugs   Section 2: From Pharmacology to Toxicology   8 General pharmacology   9 Unwanted effects and adverse drug reactions   10 Poisoning, overdose, antidotes   11 Drug dependence   Section 3: Infection and Inflammation   12 Chemotherapy of infections   13 Antibacterial drugs   14 Chemotherapy of bacterial infections   15 Viral, fungal, protozoal and helminthic infections   16 Drugs for inflammation and joint disease   17 Drugs and the skin   Section 4: Nervous System   18 Pain and analgesics   19 Anaesthesia and neuromuscular block   20 Psychotropic drugs   21 Neurological disorders - epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis   Section 5: Cardiorespiratory and Renal Systems   22 Cholinergic and antimuscarinic (anticholinergic) mechanisms and drugs   23 Adrenergic mechanisms and drugs   24 Arterial hypertension, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and heart failure   25 Cardiac arrhythmia    26 Hyperlipidaemias   27 Kidney and genitourinary tract   28 Respiratory system   Section 6: Blood and Neoplastic Disease   29 Drugs and haemostasis   30 Cellular disorders and anaemias   31 Neoplastic disease and immunosuppression   Section 7: Gastrointestinal System   32 Oesophagus, stomach and duodenum   33 Intestines   34 Liver, biliary tract, pancreas   Section 8: Endocrine System, Metabolic Conditions   35 Adrenal corticosteroids, antagonists, corticotropin   36 Diabetes mellitus, insulin, oral antidiabetes agents, obesity   37 Thyroid hormones, antithyroid drugs   38 Hypothalamic, pituitary and sex hormones   39 Vitamins, calcium, bone","brand":"Elsevier Health Sciences","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51018382377303,"sku":"9780702073281","price":50.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780702073281.jpg?v=1750776653","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/clinical-pharmacology-9780702073281","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
