Description
Professional's Handbook of Drug Therapy for Pain is a comprehensive review of the key pharmacologic interventions that may be used in pain management. It is positioned for a variety of practice specialties. Recognizing that pain management cuts across all areas of practice and settings, it addresses a variety of drugs and their delivery systems. Not only does it include traditional pain medications like NSAIDs, opioids, and anesthetics, but also adjuvant drug therapy like corticosteroids, bisphosphonates, radiopharmaceuticals, and neuroleptics. In addition, the book moves beyond its drug focus to cover other methods of pain management. Basic pain theories, assessment, and intervention guidelines are also addressed
