Description

Presented in a highly visual style, this book offers an introduction to clinically relevant pharmacologic agents used in small and large animal practice. It includes an overview of key concepts in pharmacology including basic principles of pharmacodynamics, physiological uptake and nervous system perception. Various types of drugs are discussed, including: tranqulizers, sedatives and opiods. Pharmacologic effects, side effects, drug interactions and species differences are illustrated with emphasis on figures, charts and diagrams. Over 100 study questions test retention and comprehension. This "quick look" is well-presented, easy to follow, very concise and should be instrumental in developing a rudimentary understanding of pharmacological principles in animal medicine.
