Overview (Details, Topics and Speakers):

While palliative care has adopted a holistic approach to treatment, medication driven symptom management ostensibly forms the critical aspect of care. Pharmacological therapy can be extremely complex because these patients often have coexisting medical conditions in addition to symptoms caused by their terminal disease. The resulting polypharmacy can be daunting for professionals and can negatively impact on effectiveness of care. Fully revised and updated, the second edition of Drugs in Palliative Care is a detailed yet concise handbook that will appeal to a variety of healthcare professionals involved in the provision of palliative care and medicines information. Divided into three sections it begins with an overview of pharmacology and prescribing advice then contains over 160 monographs of palliative care drugs, in an easy to use A-Z format.

Editorial Reviews

 

Review

Review from previous edition: “Overall,this book represents a lot of useful information in an accessible format. There is some overlap with existing resources, such as the British National Formulary and the Palliative Care Formulary, but this book is more concise, making information easier to access. Its focus on palliative care makes it most suitable for specialists in that field; however, the symptom management guides can also be useful for generalists” –OUP website
