Widely recognised as the best starting point for pharmacology study, the internationally best-selling Medical Pharmacology at a Glance is an ideal companion for all students of the health sciences.

Key principles are supported by coloured schematic diagrams - invaluable as both an introduction to medical pharmacology, and revision in the run-up to pharmacology exams.

Revised and thoroughly updated throughout, and reflecting changes to the content and assessment methods used by medical schools, Medical Pharmacology at a Glance:

  • Introduces the basic principles of drug action, interaction, absorption and excretion
  • Bases chapters on diseases and syndromes, for clinically-focused learning
  • Includes references to the pathophysiology of disease, to aid understanding of drug choice and action
  • Indicates the therapeutics of choice for specific disorders and conditions
  • Features cross references between discussion of drug classes and diseases
  • Includes self-assessment cases studies with full answers, for revision and review
  • Features a new chapter on immunosuppressants and antirheumatoid drugs

Now includes a brand new companion website, with cases and fully downloadable flashcards, at www.ataglanceseries.com/pharmacology
