Are Your Meds Making You Sick?: A Pharmacist's Guide to Avoiding Dangerous Drug Interactions, Reactions, and Side-Effects - Softcover
Synopsis
Dangerous drug interactions and common drug-induced illnesses are a hidden epidemic throughout the world - where unqualified use and abuse of prescription drugs is becoming commonplace and many doctors prescribe multiple medicines because they don't have the time to fully diagnose. Robert S. Gold, a clinical hospital pharmacist and affiliate instructor of clinical pharmacy at Purdue University with over 27 years of experience, shows the reader how to think like a clinical hospital pharmacist. He lists his 16 Rules of Safe Medication Use that, if followed, can help prevent the common problems that medication can cause; gives specific examples and scenarios featuring the thirty-six drugs that are the most common offenders and explains how even seemingly good drugs can harm a patient's kidney, liver, brain and heart if the patient's medical history and physical vulnerabilities are not taken into account. ARE YOUR MEDS MAKING YOU SICK? is highly accessible and formatted for quick reference by any layperson. As the populations age and there is a steady increase in the number of prescribed and over the counter medicines and alternative remedies, this book will only become more important.
