DESCRIPTION
Highly regarded by both students and instructors,
Principles of Pharmacology:
The Pathophysiologic Basis of DrugTherapy, Fourth 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 section presents the pharmacology of a physiologic or biochemical system,
followed by the pharmacology of a particular aspect of that system; a clinical
vignette; a discussion of the biochemistry, physiology, and pathophysiology of
the system; and the drugs and drug classes that activate or inhibit the system
by interacting with specific molecular and cellular targets. Clear, concise
illustrations highlight key points, and drug summary tables offer quick access to
essential information.
