Product Description

As every healthcare provider knows, drug-drug interactions are as prevalent as they are preventable. The Clinical Manual of Drug Interaction Principles for Medical Practice is an exceptionally practical, thoroughly up-to-date resource to help psychiatric clinicians (including residents and nurses) understand and avoid potentially dangerous interactions and provide the highest standard of patient care. Many new medications have entered the market in recent years and knowledge of pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenetics has grown significantly. From earlier versions in concise guide format, the authors have evolved this new and enlarged Manual offering the expanded coverage and features that clinicians need to keep up with this critical field. Major sections cover metabolism (with new, expanded coverage of transporters); cytochrome P450 enzymes; up-to-date coverage of drug interactions by medical specialty; and practical matters, such as the medicolegal implications of drug-drug interaction
