"This book is, by far, one of the best in pharmacy. It is an exceptionally useful reference for both pharmacists and pharmacy students. It communicates a wealth of information that is well researched and referenced. The seventh edition is a much needed update."-- Doody's Review Service When it comes to helping you develop a mastery of evidence-based medicine for optimal patient outcomes, no book can match A Pathophysiologic Approach . Like the discipline it covers, the scope of this trusted resource goes beyond drug indications and dosages to include the initial selection, proper administration, and monitoring of drugs. Pharmacotherapy delivers everything you need to know to provide safe, effective drug therapy across the full range of therapeutic categories. The book also delves into psychosocial issues that affect compliance--topics related to a patient's ability to understand and manage often-complex therapy--and lifestyle changes that may reduce the need for drug therapy or improve pharmacotherapeutic outcomes.

This book is a thriller, from start to finish - keeping you glued to its pages with clairvoyant descriptions of anatomy, physiology and pharmacotherapy or drug use in disease state management. Three cheers to DiPiro and colleagues for being ahead of their pharmacy curve with this text.

Actually it saves me everyday. I love DiPiro.

This book has been indispensable (believe me, I've TRIED) for the last years of pharmacy school, but drier prose one will never find!! I'm rating it for it's scientific merit and usefulness to a practicing clinician, not for how fun it is to read!

Would rather lose my vision than ever have to look at this book again

[Abigail Leigh]

Again not a top choice but I've got a Pathophys test so I've got to read it otherwise the only other thing I would use this book for is a door stop. It easily weighs 10-15 lbs!!

Bought as a reference textbook for pharmacy school, it's full of great reference material for many of our classes.
