Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics is an essential, multidisciplinary textbook that combines the knowledge of pharmacists, clinicians and nurses to present optimal drug regimens.

Each chapter is co-written by a pharmacist and a clinician, merging information about disease and pathophysiological processes with clinical pharmacy experience. This provides readers with an understanding of both normal and abnormal physiology, the reasoning behind various drug regimens, as well as current guidelines and evidence.

Now in its seventh edition and fully updated throughout, this popular book is logically structured and easy to navigate. It is an ideal resource for all students needing a broad understanding of the world of drugs.
