Lecture Notes: Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics Reviews

An exceptionally comprehensive revision aid, which covers all aspects of prescribing from the principles to its practical aspects, taking a systems-based approach to cover everything you need to know. Medical Student, Cambridge This is a very good book, which not only gives you an overview of clinical pharmacology but the depth to have a safe-working knowledge of it. Medical Student, Barts and the London This is an excellent textbook which can be used in a jam, to help you cover the most important drugs and clinical scenarios in a relatively short amount of time. It's perfect for your exams following clinical placements where your consultants expect you to know the basics of a broad variety of drug classifications, or as a quick leg up on important drugs before facing the hospitals. Medical Student, University College, Dublin This is a very effective and easy to use resource that can firstly introduce you to the field of clinical pharmacology. Following that, it could be useful to revise from before rotations on the various systems. Medical Student, GKT Lecture Notes in Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics is a beautifully written textbook and is a must for medical students. It is a well laid out textbook that tells you all you need to know about pharmacology to get through medical school or any other course that has a basis in pharmacology. [...] I only wish I had known of this book when I was studying Pharmacology. Medical Student, Manchester University A concise book about modern pharmacology. It gives a good introduction to each subject and explains the relevant pathophysiology of each condition. The authors use a systematic approach to diseases. This helps to clarify underlying concepts before you are bombarded with drug classes and names. Overall, this is a very clinically oriented book that I might use to revise for my finals. Northwing, Sheffield Medical Students' Magazine
