This quick reference book from AITBS Publishers, India is an English medium (अंग्रेजी माध्यम) book on Pharmacology, written by Vikas Dhikav, prepared for MBBS students and postgraduate entrance aspirants preparing as per the NEET, DNB, AIIMS and PGI pattern, and also useful for BDS, nursing, pharmacy and allied health science students. The book answers one question repeatedly and precisely — which drug is the drug of choice for a given condition (चयनित औषधि), and what the alternative and second-line options are — because this is the form in which pharmacology is most often tested in entrance examinations and asked at the viva table. This Ninth Edition sets out the drugs of choice condition by condition across the whole of clinical medicine: cardiovascular conditions including hypertension, angina, myocardial infarction, heart failure and arrhythmias; respiratory conditions including asthma and COPD; infections covering bacterial, tubercular, fungal, viral, protozoal and helminthic disease; central nervous system conditions including epilepsy, Parkinsonism, migraine, stroke and psychiatric disorders; endocrine conditions including diabetes and thyroid disease; gastrointestinal, renal, haematological, dermatological, obstetric, ophthalmic and paediatric conditions; poisoning and their antidotes; and drugs of choice in pregnancy, lactation, renal failure and hepatic impairment. Its distinguishing feature is the tabulated, condition-wise arrangement that makes the book usable for rapid revision in the days before an examination. All content, terminology and explanations in this book are presented in the English language only.
