Edition: Paperback; 2000-01-01
Summary:
The fifth edition of this standard reference contains more than
10,000 additional entries compared to the last edition! The directory
is organized into five sections. The first is an index of the
laboratory tests listed together with cross-references to alternate
names. The second is an index of the search terms, mainly generic
names for drugs, but with cross-references to proprietary names and
other aids to enable you to easily track down the information you
want. Even though you may only know the broad category of drug or its
proprietary name, it should be possible to determine the generic name
to use for a search. The third and fourth sections are the major
components of the compilation: sorts by laboratory test and drug,
respectively. Each entry comprises the drug name; the body fluid and
analyte measured; and whether the documented effect is physiological
or pharmacological (in vivo), or analytical due to an effect on the
measuring procedure (in vitro). A brief description of the nature of
the effect is included. Where the probability and extent of the
effect has been documented in the paper in which the effect was
reported, this is included. The fifth section lists the cited
references, by authors, title of article, and journal. Due to the
increased number of entries, this new edition comes in two
easy-to-use volumes: the first contains interactions sorted by test,
the second interactions sorted by drug. Both volumes contain the drug
and test indices, and references.
