Book excerpt: An acknowledged expert on the history of modern pharmacology and drug therapy, John Parascandola here brings together 19 of his most important papers on these subjects. The book is divided into three topical sections. In the first group of articles, devoted to pharmacological theory, Dr. Parascandola sheds new light on our understanding of the history of such key pharmacological concepts as receptor theory, structure-activity relationships, and the role of stereochemistry in physiological action. The second section focuses on the discipline of pharmacology and offers insights into the pivotal role played by John J. Abel in the shaping of the field, the development of pharmacology in schools of pharmacy and in the Federal Government, and the national pharmacological society's membership ban on pharmacologists working in industry. The final section on drug therapy discusses various drugs from antibiotics to sulfones, and their use in the treatment of diseases such as leprosy and syphilis.

Book excerpt: Integrated Pharmacology: Combining Modern Pharmacology with Chinese Medicine, by Dr Greg Sperber, gives you basic information about each common class of Western pharmaceuticals. For each category of drug, Dr Sperber gives us the generic names, pronunciation, and registered proprietary versions, an explanation of function, mechanism of action, dosages for adults, children, and the elderly, possible adverse affects, red flags, and the most up-to-the-minute information on specific drug-drug and drug-herb interactions that may affect your patients. Additionally, the book includes commentary by Bob Flaws on a three-part system for evaluating Western meds using Chinese medical principles and a Chinese medical analysis of each class of drugs using this three-part system. This book has Over 130 illustrations showing the functions and mechanisms of each type of drug as well as a page-by-page glossary of potentially difficult terms throughout the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some important constraints of anesthesia must be taken into consideration when the pharmacological properties of modern anesthetics are discussed. The most imp- tant of these could be that the target effect be achieved preferably within seconds, at most within a few minutes. Similarly, offset of drug action should be achieved within minutes rather hours. The target effects, such as unconsciousness, are pot- tially life-threatening, as are the side effects of modern anesthetics, such as respi- tory and cardiovascular depression. Finally, the patient’s purposeful responses are not available to guide drug dosage, because, either the patient is unconscious, or more problematically, the patient is aware but unable to communicate pain because of neuromuscular blockade. These constraints were already recognised 35 years ago, when in 1972 Volume XXX entitled “Modern Inhalation Anesthetics” appeared in this Handbook Series. The present volume is meant as a follow up and extension of that volume. At the beginning of the 1970’s anesthesia was commonly delivered by inhalation, with only very few exceptions. The clinical understanding of that time considered anesthesia as a unique state achieved by any of the inhalation anesthetics, in- pendent of their specific molecular structure. “The very mechanism of anesthetic action at the biophase” was discussed within the theoretical framework of the “u- tary theory of narcosis”.

Book excerpt: Modern pharmacology and toxicology is a branch of medicine, biology, and the pharmaceutical sciences that studies how drugs and medicines work. A drug can be any molecule, whether it's made in a lab, found in nature, or made by the body itself. To describe any species, either endogenous or foreign, that influences the biochemistry or physiology of a cell, tissue, organ, or organism, the term "pharmacon" is occasionally used. The study of interactions between living things and substances that influence both normal and aberrant biochemical activity is what it is known as in more particular terms. Pharmaceuticals are any compounds that may be used to treat or prevent disease. Toxicology is a field that draws from many other scientific disciplines, hence the work and interests of toxicologists span many areas. As we now know that all compounds may cause toxicity according to the exposure time and dosage, toxicologists are primarily interested in the mechanisms of action of various agents. Nonetheless, scientists are currently trying to determine the routes or endogenous molecules that are affected by even the most well-known and ancient substances, which results in toxicity.

To that end, clinical pharmacologists focus on both improving the effectiveness of already available medications and creating brand new ones. In light of the thalidomide disaster, contemporary clinical pharmacology was born, yet nowadays, most adverse medication responses are dosage related. To begin with, doctors would utilise TDM to adjust a patient's dose based on their specific needs. In recent years, pharmacogenetics has been employed for this, and it has also proven helpful in selecting appropriate medications. Understanding how medications are absorbed, distributed, and excreted (pharmacokinetics) has allowed for advancements in this field. Evaluation of renal function and clarification of the pharmacokinetic implications of compromised renal function have been at the heart of this work. Clinical toxicology is a branch of toxicology that deals with the care of poisoned patients at the bedside. This includes making a definitive toxicological diagnosis, figuring out how bad the poisoning is right now and what the long-term outlook is, and choosing treatments, including antidotes. A clinical toxicologist's expertise in the possible dangers of drugs and chemicals enables them to aid in the prevention and preparation of chemical overdoses. Clinical disease is mostly brought on by toxicants. Because of this, clinical toxicology is included in internal medicine and greatly benefits from the expertise of other medical fields. Clinical toxicology calls for expert knowledge of pharmacology.
