As healthcare practitioners roles continue to expand and include prescribing and managing patients with complex care needs, there is a need to have a good grounding in the relevant pharmacology. This new text, written by two nurses who have both worked as nurse practitioners, is an excellent resource. It allows the reader to broaden their knowledge on understanding drugs and their use in patient care. One of the advantages of the book is it has practical ways of showing how knowledge can be applied in clinical practice as often this is the area that creates difficulties for healthcare practitioners with polypharmacy and managing potential drug interactions.
