Clinical Case Studies on Medication Safety provides real and simulated scenarios about safety issues related to medication, including Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs), medication errors, and Drug Related Problems (DRPs). The book explains real-life case management, including details about adverse drug reactions, mistakes during drug administration, drug avoidance, and drug-drug interactions with a goal of improving patient care. With over 150 case studies, including cases from alternative medicine and traditional medicine, this book will help medical and health sciences educators, students, healthcare professionals, and other readers apply their knowledge and skills to solve cases for better patient care.

Elemene Antitumor Drugs: Molecular Compatibility Theory and its Applications in New Drug Development and Clinical Practice mainly introduces the research and development of natural anti-tumor drug elemene and systematic basic and clinical research based on it. First of all, the basic principle of the compatibility theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the research and development process of the natural anti-tumor drug elemene under the guidance of this principle are comprehensively introduced. At the same time, the traditional extraction and separation of elemene and the new biosynthesis technology developed by the author's team are described in detail. Then, the systematic anti-tumor mechanism research of elemene was introduced, including its unique multi-target and comprehensive anti-tumor mechanisms, and its detailed mechanism for treating specific tumors. Under the guidance of compatibility theory, clinical research on the combined application of elemene and different chemotherapeutic drugs has been further carried out, achieving positive results in clinical practice. Finally, the book also introduces the research and exploration of new drug delivery systems of elemene, as well as the structural modification and drug discovery progress taking elemene structure as the lead compound.
