Book Description:

Written by and for nurse practitioners, this practical textbook focuses on what primary care providers need to learn and practice drug therapy. With an overall emphasis on patient teaching and health promotion, you will learn how to provide effective patient teaching about medications and how to gain patient compliance. Drug coverage focuses on "key drugs" rather than "prototype drugs," so you can find important information about the most commonly used drugs rather than the first drug in each class. You will also find discussions on the legal and professional issues unique to nurse practitioners and other primary care providers. The 3rd edition also features an expanded emphasis on established clinical practice guidelines and evidence-based practice, plus two new chapters that cover drugs for ADHD and drugs for dementia.

The Goodman and Gilman Manual of Pharmacology.pdf

11th edition of Goodman & Gilman’s The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics is 5% shorter than its predecessor, yet the volume still weighs 4 kg. It’s a wonderful book but clearly too heavy to carry around. Hence, this shorter, more portable version, Goodman & Gilman’s Manual of Pharmacology and Therapeutics. This book can be said as encyclopedia of drugs. It explains all the facts about drugs and medicine in such a detail that after reading this book one can easily be said as the master of this field. The book is divided into XV sections. The 1st two sections explain the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic principles of pharmacology. The rest of the sections are classified according to organ system and each section explains the complete pharmacology of  the drugs affecting a particular organ system. The last section is about toxicology. Each section is further subdivided into a number of chapters.
