Pharmacology for Nurses

Pharmacology for Nurses: A Pathophysiologic Approach, 7th Edition, by Michael P. Adams, Norman Holland, and Shanti Chang, pairs drug therapy directly with underlying disease processes. Designed for nursing students, educators, and practicing nurses, this textbook connects pharmacologic principles to specific therapeutic targets across health care settings.

Rather than evaluating medications in isolation, the text groups drug treatments within the context of specific physiological conditions. Detailed coverage addresses treatments for the nervous, cardiovascular, urinary, immune, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and endocrine systems, alongside therapeutic management for skin, eye, and ear disorders.

This seventh edition incorporates 120 new drugs along with revised content reflecting developments in disease understanding and pharmacotherapeutics. Its systematic presentation assists learners in translating pharmacologic knowledge into clinical practice.
