Description
Book SynopsisThis Handbook mirrors the leading national guides to prescribing. The safe and effective use of medicine requires a sound knowledge of pharmacology. As readers use this practical book, they will increase their knowledge.
Trade ReviewI would recommend the Oxford Handbook of Practical Drug Therapy for both use on the wards and for revision for medical school exams. . . Its in depth cover of relevant prescribing information will make it a useful resource for junior doctors as well as medical students. * Lucy Faulkner, Northwing Magazine Sheffield University Medical Students Magazine *
This is a small compact and easy to utilise drug therapy manual. Overall a well set out easy to follow guide that would be useful for health professionals of all levels. * ANTS Bulletin *
