This textbook from Sathya Publishers is an English medium (अंग्रेजी माध्यम) book on Pharmacology, written by Dr. N. Murugesh, prepared for BDS (dental) students as per the Dental Council of India syllabus, and also useful for nursing, pharmacy and allied health science students needing a simplified account of the subject. As its subtitle promises, the book is written to make pharmacology "too simple and very easy" for the dental undergraduate — every drug group is set out in the same fixed order of classification, mechanism of action, pharmacological actions, therapeutic uses, adverse effects (प्रतिकूल प्रभाव) and contraindications, in short readable units rather than long continuous text, with the depth pitched to what a dental student needs rather than to a medical curriculum. The book covers general pharmacology with pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, routes of administration and adverse drug reactions; autonomic nervous system drugs; local anaesthetics and general anaesthetics; analgesics, NSAIDs and drugs for dental pain; sedatives, hypnotics and anxiolytics used in the dental chair; antibiotics, antifungals and antivirals with their use in odontogenic infections; antiseptics, disinfectants and fluorides; drugs acting on blood including haemostatics and anticoagulants; cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal and endocrine pharmacology as relevant to the dental patient; drugs used in medical emergencies in dental practice; and prescription writing with the management of patients on long-term medication. Its distinguishing feature is this dental orientation — the pharmacology a dentist actually prescribes and must anticipate in a patient, supported by classification tables and diagrams. All content, terminology and explanations in this book are presented in the English language only.
