Short description/annotation
The most widely acclaimed resource for primary physicians, practicing dermatologists, and hospital consultants, now expanded and improved.
Back cover copy
More than a quarter of a million patients are admitted to hospital in the United Kingdom alone because of harmful effects after taking drugs;nbsp;a recent BMA reportnbsp;suggests that these cases cost the NHS around £466m or $870m a year.
Updated and improved, the thirteenth edition of this text stands out as the most widely acclaimed resource on adverse reactions to drugs, not just for practicing dermatologists, but also for primary care physicians and hospital consultants. It perfectly answers the busy physician’s need for a comprehensive, authoritative and independent guide to the known adverse effects to newly approved, commonly prescribed and over-the-counter drugs, herbals and supplements.
Review quote:
'This is the most comprehensive book on drug eruptions.nbsp; Nothing else can remotely compare to it.nbsp; You must run to the nearest medical bookstore and get it.nbsp; Don't practice without it!nbsp; Once you have a copy you'll be hooked forever.nbsp; This is the bible for drug reactions.' - Doody's Book Review Service
‘If you are not already familiar with this superb now classic drug eruption reference, shame on you!’
[PL Wong, Stanford University Medical Center]
‘The large list of reactions reported with each drug is pure gold’
