Basic Concepts in Pharmacology: What You Need to Know for Each Drug
Class is not a conventional review book for pharmacology. It is a book to help
you organize your attack on the hundreds of drugs covered in pharmacology
classes today. Our survey for the first edition of this book made it clear that
it is the number of drugs in a particular class that students find overwhelming.
This fear causes many students to lose focus on the most important part of
pharmacology—the concepts.
The purpose of this book is to
bring together scholarly articles that highlight recent developments and trends
in pharmaceutical formulation science. This book aims to serve the need of all
individuals involved at any level in the pharmaceutical dosage form
development.
Pharmacology
is a broad discipline encompassing every aspect of the study of drugs, including
their discovery and development and the testing of their action in the body.
This book aims to explain how scientists unravel the many different ways
medicines work in the body and how this information guides the hunt for drugs of
the future.
