The benchmark evidence-based pharmacotherapy text-now in full color!
Additional chapters are available online
When it comes to helping you develop a mastery of evidence-based medicine for optimal patient outcomes, no book can match Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach. Like the discipline it covers, the scope of this trusted resource goes beyond drug indications and dosages to include the initial selection, proper administration, and monitoring of drugs.
The book also delves into psychosocial issues that affect compliance … topics related to a patient's ability to understand and manage often-complex therapy… and lifestyle changes that may reduce the need for drug therapy or improve pharmacotherapeutic outcomes. Pharmacotherapy delivers everything you need to provide safe, efficacious drug therapy across the full range of therapeutic categories.

Seventh Edition I bought the casebook and the textbook together and found them to coincide nicely in their information. I even told my classmates about the deal. Thanks Amazon.
Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach I was upset that I spent over $148.00 and found that the edges of the book were crumbled, could not send it back because I needed it for class
Laura the pharmacist My 7th ed of Pharmacotherapy arrived last week. So far the information is more detailed and written at a higher level than the 6th ed which I consider an enormous improvment. But where is the E-Book?? Where is the CD that came with the 6th ed?? There are many references to on-line site [...] in the book but all the info is 6th ed. Do I have to lug this 15 pound monstrosity around with me all the time or just until I get a hernia? I e-mailed medical education@mcgraw-hill.com but have not heard from them. My review of 6th edition isn't shown. I did not like it very much. Too basic to teach from at my hospital. I hope that other chapters are as good as the ones I have read.
Brand new book in a fast amount of time The book was brand new and at a great price. It arrived promptly in perfect packaging.
eBook restricted use disappointing Each copy of the book comes with a eBook download code that allows the book owner to download an electronic copy of the book. The eBook version of the book is a special pdf file that can only be viewed on the computer that downloaded the eBook. The pdf file may be copied to another computer but the file will not be viewable on the other computer due to digital rights management features built into the file. Also, there is a 10 page/day print limit on the file. So if you want to avoid carrying the 3 inch thick book around, you had better download the eBook version to a laptop.
