Disease Management Summary

Disease Management: A Guide to Clinical Pharmacology by Dr Michael D. Randall (Associate Professor and Reader in Cardiovascular Pharmacology, School of Biomedical Sciences)

Disease Management is a comprehensive introduction to the management of diseases which are commonly encountered in primary care. Pharmacology is considered in the context of clinical practice and a holistic approach is taken to patient care to include lifestyle issues, concurrent disease and treatment, and the use of alternative remedies and complementary medicine.

Disease Management Reviews

A useful book for students and preregistration trainees...
Common diseases - such as diabetes, hypertension, asthma, depression and peptic ulceration - are described, followed by brief summaries of the pharmacology of the drugs used to manage these conditions. There is a strong focus on drug choice so that the reader can appreciate the rationale behind logical prescribing....
...drug interactions represent an important therapeutic challenge and attempts have been made to highlight important examples and how they may be overcome.
The book will be of greatest value to pharmacy students in the latter part of their courses and to preregistration graduates undertaking their clinical practice.
Laurence A. Goldberg, The Pharmaceutical Journal, 12 October 2016
