This textbook from Elsevier is an English medium (अंग्रेजी माध्यम) book on Clinical Pharmacology, written by Morris J. Brown, Pankaj Sharma, Fraz A. Mir and Peter N. Bennett, prepared for MBBS students studying pharmacology and therapeutics, and equally used by junior doctors, postgraduate trainees and prescribers who need a reliable account of how drugs are chosen and used in patients. This Twelfth Edition, in its International Edition, differs from a purely preclinical text in the way it approaches the subject — drugs are treated in the context of the clinical problem they are prescribed for, so that a student learns the therapeutics of hypertension, asthma, epilepsy or infection rather than only the properties of the drug classes involved, with the evidence and reasoning behind the choice of therapy (चिकित्सा का तर्काधार) made explicit. The book covers the general principles of clinical pharmacology including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, individual variation and pharmacogenomics, drug discovery and clinical trials, the ethical and regulatory framework of prescribing, adverse drug reactions and pharmacovigilance, drug interactions, poisoning and its management, prescribing for special groups such as the elderly, children, pregnancy and lactation, and the therapeutics of the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, renal, endocrine, neurological and psychiatric systems, along with infection, malignancy, pain, inflammation and immunosuppression. Its distinguishing feature is this prescribing-centred design, supported by a print and electronic package that gives access to the accompanying digital resources. All content, terminology and explanations in this book are presented in the English language only.
