Pediatric Injectable Drugs (The Teddy Bear Book) Tenth Edition, New edition Edition

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=1585283797]

If you work with children, you must have this book.

For more than two decades, Pediatric Injectable Drugs (The Teddy Bear Book), has served an important and continuing need for reliable evidence-based information specific to pediatric injectable drugs.

The tenth edition of this invaluable reference has grown to cover 238 drugs commonly used in the treatment of infants and children, including 20 new to this edition. The Teddy Bear Book covers neonates through adolescents, with age-specific dosing and administration guidelines throughout. With three new editors, who collectively bring 75 years of pediatric pharmacy practice experience to the book, the tenth edition is the most thorough and comprehensive reference yet.

As with previous editions, the structure of each of the drug monographs covers the following areas:

  • Brand Names
  • Medication Error Potential
  • Contraindications and Warnings
  • Infusion-Related Cautions
  • Dosage (age specific)
  • Dosage Adjustment in Organ Dysfunction
  • Maximum Dosage
  • Additives
  • Suitable Diluents
  • Maximum Concentrations
  • Preparation and Delivery
  • IV Push
  • Intermittent Infusion
  • Continuous Infusion
  • Other Routes of Administration
  • Comments

Also included is a comprehensive list of abbreviations and more than 4800 references. This is the only pediatric (neonates through adolescents) parenteral drug reference that covers limited fluid amounts, maximum doses, and limited intravenous sites—issues that pediatric practitioners often face in their patients.

When it comes to pediatric injectable drugs, valid safety and efficacy research can be hard to locate. This indispensable reference changes all that.

Moffet’s Pediatric Infectious Diseases: A Problem-Oriented Approach Fourth Edition

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=0781729432]

Unlike many texts, which are organized by disease or pathogen, this unique resource presents a problem-oriented approach to the diagnosis and management of infectious diseases in children.

All chapters are organized by anatomic syndrome and guide you through each step in the management process from classifying the patient’s illness to recognizing life-threatening emergencies, developing a logical differential diagnosis, pinpointing the disease, and treating the patient.

All the features you’ve come to trust…

  • Patient-oriented approach helps you focus on the patient rather than the pathogen, and offers a complete review of the diagnostic and treatment process.
  • Step-by-step guidelines take you logically from evaluation and work-up to diagnosis and therapeutic decision-making.
  • Expert authors combine the scientific integrity and practicality established by Dr. Moffet, with the latest advances and their own authoritative views.

Plus a wealth of NEW MATERIAL…

  • More comprehensive coverage includes greater detail in all subject areas, as well as new material on pathogens identified since the last edition—including SARS-coronavirus, hantavirus, human metapneumovirus, West Nile virus, and potential agents of bioterrorism.
  • More treatment-centered approach helps you focus on the therapeutic process—from diagnostic evaluation and testing to treatment selection.
  • All chapters have been extensively revised and updated, and two new chapters have been added addressing HIV Infection and AIDS, and Congenital Immune Deficiency Syndromes.

Handbook of Drugs for Tropical Parasitic Infections 2nd Edition

[amazon template=image&asin=0748401687]

Parasitic infections such as malaria, schistosomiasis, trypanosomiasis and onchoceriasis are the scourge of the tropical countries. Many of the drugs used for the treatment of tropical parasitic infections were introduced more than 30 years ago. Most of these drugs are toxic and have complicated dosage regimens, but, because of the low economic incentive, pharmaceutical companies have shown little interest in developing new drugs to control diseases prevalent in developing countries.; However, there has been notable progress in research into parasitic diseases and a number of important drugs have been introduced for some diseases since the 1970s. Moreover, recent data on the pharmacokinetics and field evaluations of these drugs have revealed that their effectiveness can be improved and their safety increased.; This handbook is designed to provide information about the pharmacological properties and therapeutic uses of the major drugs currently employed to combat the human parasitic infections encountered in the tropics. Each of the 38 drugs covered in the book are presented under the following headings: chemical structure, physical properties, pharmacology and mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, clinical trials, pregnancy and lactation, side effects, contraindications and precautions, dosage, preparations, and references.

Viral Infections of the Human Nervous System (Birkhäuser Advances in Infectious Diseases)

[amazon template=image&asin=3034804245]

Viral infections of the nervous system are important because they are associated with high morbidity and mortality. A variety of pathogenetic mechanisms are involved in these infections and an understanding of the pathogenesis is essential in understanding the diagnostic and clinical management aspects of the disease. Specialized investigations are often necessary for definitive diagnosis, although a presumptive diagnosis should often be suspected on the basis of the clinical features. Many of the chapters in this book are written by neurologists who are experts in basic science research of their topic in addition to active clinical practice in their specialty.
