Pharmacotherapeutics (Theory)

By Dr. Ankur Goyal, Dr. Nishant Konar & Dr. Saurabh Saklani

Pharmacotherapeutics is the subject in which the knowledge of pharmacology and pathology is turned toward the treatment of disease in the individual patient. For the diploma pharmacist it is among the most directly useful of all subjects, because it underlies the daily work of checking a prescription, advising a patient, and recognising when a complaint needs more than a remedy from the shelf. This book follows the PCI ER-2020 syllabus for the subject, opening with the principles that govern good drug use and then treating each group of diseases in the syllabus in turn.

About This Book

This book presents a comprehensive approach to pharmacotherapeutics, starting with fundamental principles that govern good drug use whatever the disease: the rational use of medicines, evidence-based medicine, the essential medicines concept, and the Standard Treatment Guidelines.

It then systematically covers each group of diseases in the syllabus, from cardiovascular disorders to disorders of women's health. Every disease is presented in a structured manner, as a chain that runs from its definition through its etiopathogenesis and clinical features to its non-pharmacological and pharmacological management and the monitoring and counselling that complete it. This approach helps diploma pharmacy students understand the complete picture of disease management and their role in patient care.
