The layout of this book requires some explanation in order for the reader
to gain the maximum benefit. The 184 drugs we have included are arranged
in alphabetical order to obviate both reference to an index and the artificial
categorization of some drugs. Each drug is presented in an identical format
and confined to one, two, or three pages under the following headings:
Uses The main clinical uses are listed.
Chemical A brief chemical classification is given.
Presentation The formulations of the commercially available prepara-
tions are described.
Main action The fundamental pharmacological properties are briefly
indicated.
Mode of action The mode of action at a cellular or molecular level
(where known) is described.
Routes of administration/doses The manufacturer’s recommended
dose ranges are listed in this section; alternative clinical uses are also
mentioned.
Effects The pharmacodynamic properties are systematically reviewed.
Where a drug has no specific or known action on a particular physiological
system, the relevant section has been omitted.
The systems described are:
CVS Cardiovascular system.
RS Respiratory system.
CNS Central nervous system.
AS Alimentary system.
GS Genitourinary system.
Metabolic/other Metabolic, endocrine, and miscellaneous.
Toxicity/side effects The major side effects are listed, with particular
reference to the practice of anaesthesia and intensive care.
Kinetics The available pharmacokinetic data are provided. Quantitative
data are not available for all drugs, particularly the long established ones.
Where information on the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excre-
tion is unavailable for a particular drug, the relevant section has been
omitted.
Absorption Details of the absorption and bioavailability are given.
