Editorial Reviews
Review
"The Pharmacotherapy Casebook should be seriously considered as a required text for pharmacotherapeutics courses. Those educational programs wishing to incorporate more student-centered learning experiences will find this book to be an invaluable resource. The complementary nature of the textbook, which focuses on content, and the casebook which focuses on content, and the casebook, which focuses on the problem-solving process, allows almost limitless flexibility of use in a number of different learning environment." (The Annals of Pharmacotherapy )

Pharmacotherapy Casebook is the perfect working tool to help students develop the essential skills required to identify and resolve drug therapy problems. Using a consistent, problem-solving approach, this new edition helps readers enhance their pharmacotherapeutic skills.
The authors include updated and revised patient cases involving 145 disease states. Sixteen new disease states have been added to this edition, along with a new chapter on Pharmaceutical Care Plans.

Organized into organ system sections that correspond to Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach, 5e, this authoritative casebook is an outstanding learning tool for educational programs. It is also a valuable resource for independent study and staff development.
