This book covers the rational scientific basis and practice of drug therapy. The book explores the psychological and medical areas that patients have a right to expect such as the maximum benefit with minimum risk. The range of general topics includes: benefits and risks, the public view of drugs and prescribers, complementary and conventional medicine. Also discussed is responsibility for drug-caused injury such as why drug therapy causes unavoidable risk. There are also discussions of the evaluation of medicines, ethics of drug research, the scientific basis of pharmacology, adverse drug reactions, and non-medical and social use of drugs.

A thorough knowledge of pharmacological and therapeutic principles is vital if drugs are to be used safely and effectively for increasingly informed patients. Those who clearly understand how drugs get into the body, how they produce their effects, what happens to them in the body, and how evidence of their therapeutic effect is assessed, will choose drugs more skilfully, and use them more safely and successfully than those who do not. Now in a fully revised 11th edition, Clinical Pharmacology is essential reading for undergraduate medical students, junior doctors and anyone concerned with evidence-based drug therapy. • Introductory first three sections cover general principles of clinical pharmacology; five subsequent sections cover drug treatment of disease, organised by body system • Retains the highly approachable style set by the original author, Professor Laurence and appreciated by generations of readers • Emphasis throughout is on evidence-based and safe drug prescribing • The International Advisory Board ensures content reflects the needs of the developing world.
