American Psychiatric Publishing | 2007-06-05 | ISBN: 1585623059 | 408 pages | PDF | 13,5 MB

This user-friendly resource offers complete and comprehensive coverage of the difficult challenges posed by drug-drug interactions. Over 170 case vignettes illustrate a variety of interactions (DDIs) to provide an unintimidating even entertaining approach to understanding these issues. Drug-Drug Interaction Primer builds on the author's earlier work, Drug Interactions Casebook: The Cytochrome P450 System and Beyond, and features updated references throughout and 29 new cases that provide such clinical examples as: a patient diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder transitions from haloperidol to aripiprazole with disastrous results; an AIDS patient's trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is replaced with warfarin following atrial fibrillation, resulting in ischemic stroke; and a delusional patient on risperidone is placed on phenytoin following seizures, and delusions return.
