Description

This edition of the Handbook on Injectable Drugs provides in a concise format monographs containing detailed information on 280 commercially available drugs. Arranged in alphabetical order by non-proprietary name, each monograph provides important information on products (sizes, strengths, volumes, and forms in which the drug is supplied, along with other components of the formulation), dosage and administration, stability, manufacturer and compatibility of the drug with other infusion solutions and drugs. Included in this edition are twelve new monographs: adenosine; allopurinol sodium; amphotericin B cholesteryl sulfate complex; busulfan; cisatracurium besylate; docetaxel; doxorubicin HCl liposome injection; fosphenytoin sodium; gemcitabine HCl; mepivacaine HCl; topotecan; and torsemide. Monographs for older drugs have been updated. There is further material on investigational drugs, and a tabulated section on the composition and characteristics of commercially available intravenous infusion solutions. Comprehensive and easy to use with extensive references, the handbook should be of use to the busy hospital pharmacy.
