Description
The 15 lessons in this pharmacy textbook define the time course of drug absorption and metabolism in the human body, examine the relationship between drug concentration at the site of action and the resulting effect, and present brief patient case studies with aminoglycosides, theophylline, vancomycin, digoxin, and phenytoin. The fourth edition adds an appendix of pharmacokinetic equations. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
