""This book was written by a senior lecturer in health science with
a great deal of input from nurses. It highlights the burden of
treatment and is a resource for non-medical prescribers in
identifying adverse drug reactions and for recognising definitions
and classifications. ... The sections on 'potential problems' and
'suggestions for prevention and management' were particularly
enlightening. The book provides ideas for better patient
consultations through discussions about medications and their
effects."
Nursing Standard"
""This likeable little book is a definite contribution to the
field and should find a home in every ward, unit and hospital
library shelf."
International Emergency Nursing"
""This book is exceedingly timely. I am certain it will be
invaluable to both undergraduate and post graduate student nurses,
and, also act as a continuing reference source. Thoroughly
recommended.""
"Molly Courtenay, Reading University, UK"
""Sue Jordan has combined her deep understanding of her own

use. This book will be an essential reference resource for every
ward bookshelf." "
