Product Description:
Learn How to Apply the Principles of Pharmacotherapy to Real-World Clinical Practice!

Pharmacotherapy Casebook sharpens the problem-solving and clinical decision-making skills you need to identify and resolve commonly encountered drug problems. This new edition is packed with more than 150 patient cases -- almost all of them new or revised -- and makes the perfect study companion to the seventh edition of DiPiro's Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach.
. .
Everything you need to develop expertise in pharmacotherapy decision making:
. . - Realistic patient presentations include medical history, physical examination, and laboratory data, followed by a series of questions using a systematic, problem-solving approach . .
- Compelling range of cases -- from the uncomplicated (a single disease state) to the complex (multiple disease states and drug-related problems).
- Diverse authorship, with cases provided by 180 clinicians from 94 institutions. .
- Casebook sections conveniently categorized by body organ system to correspond with the DiPiro's Pharmacotherapy textbook . .
- Coverage that integrates the biomedical and pharmaceutical sciences with therapeutics .
- Appendix containing valuable information on pharmacy abbreviations, laboratory texts, mathematical conversion factors, anthropometrics, and sample responses to case questions

I purchased this item along with the Pharmacotherapy text book. It provides a number of scenarios for each chapter. The very first scenario is relatively easy, the second is pretty tough to work through. The negative part of this is that it doesn't tell you the answers to the cases, nor the best way to go about getting to the answer. It does show you that everything isn't a text book case. Some of the cases are very random, just like patients are going to be. I guess it provides a real life lesson, sometimes there is no best answer and the true judgement is in the eyes of the practitioner. Nevertheless, I still gave it an ok rating because I'm trying to learn the material and this is just a bunch of scenarios with no answers.

I want to say I received the book within a week from ordering it, I don't remember exactly, but it was quicker than other books I have ordered from other sellers. It came in brand new, wrapped in plastic, along with the textbook. Good service!

I have used this book to aid my studies in therapeutics. While professors gave some cases, the cases in this book helped immensely to get the information down pat.

That book is the best one I found in Hong Kong bookstore for the Pharmacy staff or the student in the Pharmacy. The information is update and very clear. GOOD
