Like the discipline it covers, the scope of this trusted resource goes beyond drug indications and dosages to include the initial selection, proper administration, and monitoring of drugs. The book also delves into psychosocial issues that affect compliance … topics related to a patient's ability to understand and manage often-complex therapy… and lifestyle changes that may reduce the need for drug therapy or improve pharmacotherapeutic outcomes.

It is much more understandable than Goodman and Gilman. Summary: RJ Rating: 5 The book I purchased was in perfect condition, it came within a three to four day time period, and was cheaper than if I had gotten it through my local bookstore. Great place to shop for textbooks. Summary: Convenience Rating: 5 This is a required textbook for most Colleges of Pharmacy. The price is equal to or less than bookstore WITH the added convenience of home delivery. It's a very heavy book, so this is a big plus. It comes with a downloadable version and you can "carry" your lap top around with text in it. Glad I ordered on Amazon. Summary: Seventh Edition Rating: 4 I bought the casebook and the textbook together and found them to coincide nicely in their information. I even told my classmates about the deal. Thanks Amazon. Summary: Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach Rating: 3 I was upset that I spent over $148.00 and found that the edges of the book were crumbled, could not send it back because I needed it for class Code
