✦ Synopsis

The critical drug information you need for clinical practice and board preparation--in one, convenient portable guide

Pharmacotherapy Handbook delivers both the key points pharmacists needs to know in practice and the information students studying for the boards needs to pass. The Handbook delivers the essential information you need to confidently make drug therapy decisions for more than 140 diseases and disorders most commonly encountered in a clinical setting. Whether you're a student, pharmacist, or hospital administrator, you'll find answers quickly and easily in this reliable, carry-anywhere guide.

This updated eleventh edition includes new chapters on the pharmacists' patient care process, opioid use disorder, and superficial fungal infections.

Each chapter is organized in a consistent format:

Pathophysiology
Clinical presentation
Diagnosis
Treatment
Evaluation of therapeutic outcomes
Nine appendices include Pediatric Pharmacotherapy, Geriatric Assessment, Critical Care Patient Assessment, Drug Allergies, Drug-Induced Hematologic Disorders, Drug-Induced Liver Disease, Drug-Induced Pulmonary Disease, Drug-Induced Kidney Disease, and Drug-Induced Ophthalmic Disorders
