A propos du livre

Revue de presse

Essential reference for those involved in the preparation or clinical use of injectable drugs Sinthcies bthoeokpubolviceartio3n0 oyfeatrhse afgiros,t ewdeitlilonoveorf 110,000 copies in print and CD-ROM forms have been sold. It is the most popular reference of its kind, trusted by pharmacists and other healthcare professionals across the \vorld. The 'Handbook on injectable drugs' has been widely recognised as the authority on injectable drug information. No other drug reference examines parenteral drug srabiliry and compatibility in such detail. The 13th edition continues the tradition of offering health care professionals the most comprehensive source of information. This edition has been completely updated. It contains 339 monographs, including 13 new monographs, on drugs commercially available in the US and in other countries. The new monographs are anidulafungin, aripiprazole, atosiban acetate, bortezimib, caspofimgin acetate, levothyronine sodium, micafimgin sodium, nesiritide, pralidoxime chloride, tetracaine hydrochloride, tigecycline, voriconazole and ziconatide acetate. The book is designed for ease of use in clinical situations. Monographs are listed alphabetically by non-proprietary name. The names of the drugs follow the style of the 'USP Dictionary of Drug Names'. American Hospital Formulary Service (AHFS) Drug Information reference codes are conveniently located at the top of each monograph to refer the reader to more detailed information. The sources of information are accumulated from 2,723 references, including 100 new to this edition. The references are based principally on laboratory research but also include observations from practice when the observations can be verified . The presentation style and format of the text portions were revised and standardised in the 12th edition and this style has continued through to the 13th edition. Compatibility information is organised in easy-to-follow sections. The tables of compatibility tor the subject drug in infusion solutions and with other drugs in admL\:rures, syringes and during simultaneous administration through manifolds and Ysites are arranged by category. The section on products lists the sizes, strengths, volumes and pharmaceutical forms along with the other components of the tormulation and instructions for reconstitution. The pH and the osmotic value of the resultant solutions are aho presented along with miscellaneous information, such as sodium ·content.The aim of this book has remained unchanged over the years: to organise and summarise, in a concise and standardised format, the results of the primary research into drug stability and compatibility and to facilitate the use of parenteral drugs in clinical practice for the benefit of patients. This edition, like the previous 1-1,achieves this aim. It is an essential reference source for those professionals invoh- ed in the preparation or clinical use of injectable drugs. Tens of thousands of copies of the 'Handbook on injectable drugs' have been sold in its 30-year history. It has stood the test of time. Long may it continue. --The Pharmaceutical Journal (Vol 282) 7 March 2009
