Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Pharmacology, Fourth Edition enables rapid review and assimilation of large amounts of complex information about the essentials of medical pharmacology. Clear, sequential pictures of mechanisms of action actually show students how drugs work, instead of just telling them. As in previous editions, the book features an outline format, over 500 full-color illustrations, cross-references to other volumes in the series, and over 125 review questions. Content has been thoroughly updated, and a new chapter covers toxicology. New to this edition will be a companion Website containing all of the illustrations, fully searchable text, and an interactive question bank. NOTE: International Edition available for sales outside North America and Caribbean (ISBN: 978-1-60547-200-3) "Doody's Core Titles 2009."

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST! Pharm book around, December 17, 2001

By	Douglas Barber "OB doc" (Sacramento, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews : Pharmacology : Special Millennium Update (Paperback)

I used this book to study for my second year pharm class, and it has to be one of the best medical texts I have used so fair. It is an excellent balance between not enough info, aka ridiculously simple, and sweet jesus Katzung! It is concise, well organized, and has helpful pictures. I can't stress enough that if you are in the market for a pharm book THIS IS THE ONE!!!!!!!!! You will thank me later as you get your H in pharm!

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful illustrations but factual errors, July 29, 2007

By	Brian Lee (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Pharmacology (Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews Series) (Paperback)

Please be advised that though you may find the illustrations helpful and entertaining, some of descriptive pharmacology contains fatal errors. For example, on page 119:

"Cocaine can induce seizures as well as fatal cardiac arrythmias. IV diazepam and propanolol may be required to control cocaine-induced seizures and cardiac arrythmias."

Propanolol is CONTRAINDICATED in cocaine-induced cardiac arrythmias because of coronary artery vasoconstriction. Responsible health-care providers need to know this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Pharmacology Review, November 17, 2000

By	Khalid Alnaqbi (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews : Pharmacology : Special Millennium Update (Paperback)

This book is really superb. I've been using it since the second medical year. One of the best features of this book is its black-and-white illustrations which make your life easy. The info are presented in an outline format for quick reading. It's concise and excellent for review (and for the first time) study! It contains some questions at the end of each chapter. Actually, this is what you need to know for examination purposes.
