Now in its tenth edition, this famous compilation of synonyms for
drugs, pesticides and other substances of pharmacological or
biochemical interest has become even more international and
comprehensive in its scope. Electronic storage of the data has
ensured that the book is fully up to date, while the highest degree
of cross referencing between entries is guaranteed. The types of
names presented are: chemical names, abbreviated chemical names,
source names, pharmacological names, pesticide names, names derived
from places, plants or persons, research code numbers, and
proprietary names (trademarks).
For people working in the fields of biochemistry, pharmacology,
pharmaceutics, and toxicology, as well as for medical editors and
drug regulatory officers, this work will prove to be an
indispensable source of information.
