Sinossi

This text reviews all four major drug calculation methods: basic formula, ratio and proportion, fractional equation, and dimensional analysis. Practice problems help readers master each method so they can apply them effectively in practice. The book also provides illustrated explanations of drug administration techniques and devices, including oral, intra-muscular, intravenous, subcutaneous, and other routes, enabling readers to become knowledgeable about the specifics of each. It tests the mastery of drug calculation and dosing with a post-test at the end of the text that consists of 50 questions with drug labels related to orals, injectables, intravenous, and paediatric dosing. This 4th edition is completely updated throughout and it provides the most current information available on dosage calculations.
