Pharmacotherapy Principles and Practice Study Guide, 3rd Edition

By Michael Katz

More than 100 cases teach you how to apply pharmacotherapeutic concepts to real-world clinical situations

The Pharmacotherapy Principles and Practice Study Guide, Third Edition, includes more than 100 patient cases that correspond to chapters in the third edition of Pharmacotherapy Principles and Practice. These cases are presented in a realistic fashion, using terms and abbreviations that would normally be found in a patient’s medical record. Patients in these cases have drug therapy problems requiring identification and management. For each case, you will be asked to develop a patient database, drug therapy problem worksheet, and pharmacotherapy care plan using the forms provided. With the Pharmacotherapy Principles and Practice Study Guide, you will learn how to navigate through the process of applying your knowledge of pharmacotherapy to specific patient cases by organizing patient data to logically assess a patient’s medication issues and formulate a sound pharmacotherapy care plan.
