Review
...this book is an important and well-written contribution to the Oxford Handbooks series, and will prove useful, especially for those pharmacists and students developing skills and knowledge in patient-orientated pharmacy. (British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology )
I would thoroughly recommend this text for purchase by students and practising pharmacists alike. (The Pharmaceutical Journal, )
For both the newly qualified and the more experienced pharmacist, in hospital or community, this reasonably priced and useful compilation, light in weight but durably bound, should find a home alongside the BNF next to the dispensary phone, in the consultation area, on ward rounds or on visits to care homes. (Chemist & Druggist, )
Product Description
The overall goal of clinical pharmacy is to promote the correct and appropriate use of prescription and non-prescription medicinal products and devices and to minimize adverse effects. The Oxford Handbook of Clinical Pharmacy is the definitive quick-reference guide for all practising and student pharmacists. Organized alphabetically by topic, it covers the main body systems and provides a wealth of practical information required by pharmacists on a day-to-day basis. Information on controlled drugs, adverse drug reactions, interactions, communication skills and confidentiality is included and information complements the British National Formulary giving prescribing points and linked concepts of relevance to clinical pharmacists. Other chapters include adherence, anaphylaxis, clinical trials, herbal medicine, patient management and patient specific issues, pharmaceutical calculations, pharmaceutical care, research, and policy and therapy related issues. The contents are evidence-based wherever possible and contain a wealth of guidance and information gleaned by the authors who have many years of clinical pharmacy experience
