Principles of pharmacology

Organizes material by physiological or biochemical system rather than by drug class for mastery that surpasses what can be achieved by rote memorization. Each section begins with a clinical scenario illustrating a system; is followed by a discussion of the biochemistry, physiology, and pathophysiology of the system; and concludes with drugs and drug classes that affect the system by interacting with molecular and cellular targets. The book's scope includes fundamental principles; principles of autonomic and peripheral nervous, central nervous, cardiovascular, and endocrine system pharmacology; principles of chemotherapy, inflammation and immune pharmacology, and toxicology; contemporary approaches to drug discovery, development, and delivery; and fundamentals of drug evaluation and therapeutic decision-making. Each chapter includes quick-review summary tables of drugs by class, side effects, interactions, and contraindications.
