内容説明
This volume reviews comprehensively the present understanding of the clinical pharmacology and therapeutics of currently available antihypertensive agents. As fewer new molecules are entering development it becomes increasingly important to utilise existing drugs in a way that exploits their full potential through a greater understanding of their molecular biology and pharmacogenomics.
Volume in Handbook of Hypertension series.
International range of expert contributors.
Systematically reviews the clinical pharmacology of all the antihypertensive agents.
Also covers treatment of hypertension in special patient goups.
Includes covearge of latest clinical trials and prospects for the future.
