"The New Prescriber "is a comprehensive, accessible textbook that
provides essential coverage of the three core components for
prescribing: the client/patient, the evidence, and the
pharmacology.
Divided into three sections, this text first looks at the
consultation with the patient, and outlines legal, professional and
ethical frameworks which guide medical and non-medical prescribing.
The second section is devoted to evidence-based practice,
highlighting key skills essential to all clinicians. This section
encourages the student to identify why evidence-based practice
should underpin prescribing decisions. The third and final section
is concerned with pharmacology. The student is introduced to basic
concepts of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics, adverse drug
reactions and variability of response. The importance of these
pharmacological principles is highlighted throughout the subsequent
discussion of drug groups affecting major body systems.
