Description
Written by residents at the Wills Eye Hospital, this pocket reference provides information on diagnostic and therapeutic ophthalmic medications. It covers the entire range of ophthalmic pharmaceutical products and contains facts on dosages, mechanisms of action, side effects, contra-indications, and treatment regimens for specific disorders. Drugs are grouped by major clinical use - antibacterial; antifungal; antiviral; antiparasitic; antiglaucoma; neuro-ophthalmologic; anti-inflammatory; mydriatics; cycloplegics and reversal agents; lubricants and viscoelastics; and miscellaneous agents. The book is organized so that the physician can quickly look up either a drug or a disease. Coverage includes therapeutic regimens for specific bacterial and fungal infections, glaucoma, and neuro-ophthalmologic conditions. Appendices cover topical antibacterial spectrum, preparing fortified topical antibiotics, antifungal activity spectrum, renal dosing for selected drugs, and glaucoma medication preservatives.
