Synopsis:

First published in 1976, this handbook is a consolidation of principles and techniques for practitioners, researchers and students involved in the various applications of pharmacokinetics. Twenty-six of the previous edition's 37 chapters have been revised. A new chapter entitled ""Extracorporeal Methods of Drug Removal"" addresses the clinical pharmacokinetic challenges that accompany renal replacement therapy. Pharmacokinetic data profiles for an additional 128 drugs have been added to the appendix, which now provides accessible information on 426 drugs.

From the Back Cover: The sixth edition of the classic pharmacokinetics handbook remains a user-friendly consolidation of principles and techniques for practitioners, researchers, and students involved in the various applications of pharmacokinetics. Readers will find the book current, accurate, comprehensive, and useful clinically.

“This book will be useful to clinicians, educators, and students. It presents a wealth of material clearly, concisely, and efficiently.”
-From review of 5th edition by Thomas M. Guenthner, PhD Doody’s Health Sciences Book Review Journal
