guide to pharmacology concepts and commonly used veterinary drugs.
Providing a succinct overview of veterinary pharmacology, this book
presents information in a user-friendly outline format to allow
quick access to practical drug information. With chapters covering
the basic principles, specific drugs, interactions, and legal
considerations, Handbook of Veterinary Pharmacology offers
up-to-date information on basic and clinical veterinary
pharmacology.
As an aid to student comprehension, simple line drawings depict
the mechanisms of action and study questions with explanations are
included at the end of each chapter. Appendices on withdrawal times
for drugs in production animals and drug dosages in domestic
species are a valuable tool, allowing quick decisions on drug
therapy. Handbook of Veterinary Pharmacology is an
indispensable text for veterinary students and practitioners.

"The explosive growth of pharmacologic information in recent
decades has resulted in vast amounts of complex information that is
often difficult for busy clinicians to assimilate and prioritize.
The Handbook of Veterinary Pharmacology offers a solution to
this quandary by providing a concise reference for veterinary
students and practitioners. I would recommend it for veterinary
students as an excellent source of review material and for
practitioners as a good starting point for questions regarding
specific treatments." (Journal of the American Veterinary
Medical Association, March 2009)
"Any vet school or practicing vet needs Handbook of
Veterinary Pharmacology: it's a guide to pharmacology concepts
and commonly used veterinary drugs and provides an easy outline
format to allow for quick access to drug information. Easy line
drawings showing the mechanisms of action and study questions are
included at the end of each chapter, with details on drug dosages,
drug therapy for different domestic species, and clear diagrams.
Perfect for students and practicing vets seeking a quick
reference." (Midwest Book Review, January 2009)
"This handbook for veterinary pharmacology has been designed as
a quick reference in the field for practical drug information,
including data on drug interactions and legal considerations. Hsu
(Iowa State U. College of Veterinary Medicine) has arranged this
reference to emphasize the most commonly used drugs to treat
animals, and includes plenty of diagrams and illustrations to
explain the chemical mechanisms behind each medication. Study
questions have been provided at the end of each chapter, which will
enable this book to be used in the classroom as well." (SciTech
