Riassunto

Are you confident converting an equianalgesic dose, or do you second-guess yourself every time a patient switches opioids?

Most clinicians learn pain pharmacology in fragments: a lecture here, a drug-interaction alert there, a panicked bedside lookup during a night shift. The gaps show up exactly when they matter most, at the point of prescribing.

This 2026 edition brings the full scope of modern pain pharmacology into one clinical reference: nociceptive and neuropathic mechanisms, acetaminophen and NSAID pharmacology, opioid receptor biology and equianalgesic conversion, buprenorphine and methadone induction, gabapentinoids and antidepressant-class analgesics, local anesthetic and regional anesthesia technique, interventional procedures, multimodal postoperative protocols, cancer pain, and prescribing in special populations.

What you will find inside:

• Clear, mechanism-first explanations instead of memorization-only drug lists
• Drug dosing snapshots with route, frequency, maximum dose, and monitoring parameters
• Clinical vignettes that walk through real prescribing decisions
• Red flag boxes highlighting the mistakes that cause preventable harm
• Rapid review bullets for fast bedside or exam recall
• Detailed clinical illustrations depicting receptor pharmacology, nerve block anatomy, and withdrawal physiology

A QR code inside links to a companion video course with more than 100 curated lectures organized by chapter, so the material extends beyond the page.

Whether you are a nurse practitioner, physician assistant, pharmacist, resident, or physician who prescribes analgesics regularly, this reference is built to sit on your desk and travel with you on rounds.

Stop guessing at the bedside. Build the pharmacology foundation this specialty demands.
