Review
"The book covers the epidemiology, etiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and treatment of more than 100 disease states. Brief patient cases help develop the critical thinking abilities of readers and illustrate the clinical relevance of the topic, while the tables and figures aid in understanding the different concepts." 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service (Doody's )

Customer Reviews

Excellent Textbook
This was a purchase for my NP program pharm class. However, it is turning out to be one of the most current and helpful books I have purchased. It goes into detail about trending medications and breaks down the underlying problems and drug mechanisms clearly.
Might seem expensive but it is compatible to three prior books I have purchased all wrapped up into one!

Pharmacotherapy Principles and Practice
Brand new book with eBook access code included. eBook that you download to your computer is very helpful so you don't have to lug this huge book around all day.

Pharm
I purchased this book as a supplement for my NP pharm class and I am very pleased with this book. This book provides valuable information linked to disease processes in an easy to read format. I highly recommend this book for anyone taking a pharm class. This book is an excellent reference that I will use after I graduate and go into practice. I especially like the feature of being able to have it as an ebook since it is a large book it helps to be able to focus on whatever chapter you want to read by pulling it up on your computer.
