Introduction to Clinical Pharmacology, 10th Edition, focuses on safe and effective drug administration, preventing medication errors. This book explains pharmacology principles and demonstrates how drugs and drug classes function, including their adverse effects and interactions. Each drug class includes a comprehensive nursing process section outlining the nurse’s responsibilities in drug administration. The updated edition also includes a feature called “Get Ready for the Next Generation NCLEX® Examination!” that provides case studies with Next Generation NCLEX-format questions, aiding in preparation for the new licensure examination.
