Product Description

The seventh edition of the benchmark evidence-based pharmacotherapy text--now in full color!

. .

Includes Online Learning Center--that features 11 additional chapters, learning objectives, interactive questions, and more!

. . "This book is, by far, one of the best in pharmacy. It is an exceptionally useful reference for both pharmacists and pharmacy students. It communicates a wealth of information that is well researched and referenced. The seventh edition is a much needed update. 4 Stars!"--Doody's Review Service. .

When it comes to helping you develop a mastery of evidence-based medicine for optimal patient outcomes, no book can match Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach. Like the discipline it covers, the scope of this trusted resource goes beyond drug indications and dosages to include the initial selection, proper administration, and monitoring of drugs. Pharmacotherapy delivers everything you need to know to provide safe, effective drug therapy across the full range of therapeutic categories.

. .

The book also delves into psychosocial issues that affect compliance--topics related to a patient's ability to understand and manage often-complex therapy--and lifestyle changes that may reduce the need for drug therapy or improve pharmacotherapeutic outcomes.

. .

5 out of 5 stars Dipiro: Pharmacotherapy   October 10, 2008
This is actually a great book for pharmacy students and pharmacists alike. It is much more understandable than Goodman and Gilman.


5 out of 5 stars RJ   September 30, 2008
The book I purchased was in perfect condition, it came within a three to four day time period, and was cheaper than if I had gotten it through my local bookstore.
Great place to shop for textbooks.

This is a required textbook for most Colleges of Pharmacy. The price is
equal to or less than bookstore WITH the added convenience of home delivery. It's a very heavy book, so this is a big plus. It comes with
a downloadable version and you can "carry" your lap top around with
text in it. Glad I ordered on Amazon.

I bought the casebook and the textbook together and found them to coincide nicely in their information. I even told my classmates about the deal. Thanks Amazon.

I was upset that I spent over $148.00 and found that the edges of the book were crumbled, could not send it back because I needed it for class
