| Publisher Description: Are you preparing for the NAPLEX, USMLE or the NCLEX-RN? Perhaps a busy healthcare professional who wants to brush up your cognitive skills related to pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics? Or a client who wants to be well informed about drugs and medications? Drugs are everywhere. We take it with or without a prescription. Have we stopped to think about the synergistic action or concurrent usage of these drugs that we are taking? Even OTC like NSAID, if not taken with meals or on a full stomach can cause GI ulceration. Concurrent use of MAOI with symmetrel may cause hypertensive crisis. There is a lot more to learn from these drugs. The intention of this book is to provide the simplest method of reviewing the major drugs that are prescribed and administered in the healthcare profession. It covers the specific drugs for the different body systems. It is presented with definitions, classes, pharmacodynamic, drug interactions, side effects, adverse reactions and healthcare responsibilities. There are chapter quizzes and tests.
