Description

Now in its third edition, this small and accessible guide contains essential information for the safe prescribing of the most commonly used drugs in the NHS.

The Top 100 Drugs combines the best elements of a students textbook with those of a prescribers manual. It gives equal weight to essential information on the science of pharmacology as well as the real-world practicalities of prescribing, all in an accessible and clear format.

Written by leaders in the field of clinical pharmacology, this popular book has been fully revised and updated to include the drugs used today, including monoclonal antibodies and antiviral drugs for COVID-19. With common indications, mechanism of action, adverse effects, important interactions and a clinical tip for each drug as well as questions to test knowledge, this book is key to helping students understand everything they need to know about the drugs they are likely to use in practice.
