Pharmacology for Nursing Care


Publisher: Saunders
7th edition - July 29, 2009
Hardcover: 1376 pages
ISBN-10: 1416062491
ISBN-13: 978-1416062493
 

This text emphasizes understanding over memorization to effectively present the "big picture" through the use of drug prototypes, large and small print, and special foundational chapters that cover principles related to each body system. At the end of each chapter, a summary of major nursing implications also helps you apply the material to real-world situations.
A prototype drug approach uses one drug within each drug family that characterizes all members of its group to give you the knowledge you need to learn not only about related drugs currently on the market, but also about those drugs that will be released once the student begins practice.

Introducing Pharmacology for Nursing and Healthcare

Publisher: Pearson Education
1st edition - 16 July 2009
Paperback: 320 pages
ISBN-10: 0273718630
ISBN-13: 978-0273718635 

Pharmacology concerns all practitioners of medicine and is essentially the science of drugs. It calls for the use of techniques from many other fields, such as biochemistry, statistics, and epidemiology, and can therefore prove to be a challenging subject. 
Introducing Pharmacology has been specially written for nursing and healthcare professionals, both trainees and qualified practitioners. The book provides an easy to understand introduction to Pharmacology that nursing and healthcare professionals will find relevant from the beginning of clinical training at the hospital, and afterwards in medical practice.
