Description

Take an evidence-based approach to prescribing decisions with this comprehensive guide

Prescribing decisions are among the most important parts of clinical practice. Balancing patient needs, possible drug interactions, the probability of adverse drug reactions, and more requires an evidence-based approach rooted in pharmacological principles. The New Prescriber:: An Integrated Approach to Medical and Non-medical Prescribing offers a thorough, accessible introduction to the core components of prescribing, essential for any student preparing for clinical practice. Now fully updated to reflect the latest best practices and to address questions raised by different prescribing settings, it promises to continue as the key introduction to this vital subject.

Readers of the second edition of The New Prescriber will also find::

  • An introduction to the principles of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
  • New sections covering topics including illegal and illicit drugs, overdose and deprescribing, and more
  • A thorough glossary with key terms

The New Prescriber is ideal for all non-medical prescribing students, nursing, allied health professionals, and medical students.
