The use of drugs as remedies for various types of diseases has a
long tradition; however, it has only been recently recognized that
the value of any given compound must be evaluated in light of its
benefit to risk ratio. When prescribing drugs, physicians must look
at the big picture of the drug's benefits in relation to its side
effects and possible toxicity. The aim of this handbook is to
compile data from various authors, providing clinicians with data
that will optimize their decision making in selecting effective,
low-risk drug treatments. It also provides research workers,
including physicians, pharmacists, and basic scientists, with a
sound basis for increasing knowledge of the risk/benefit ratios of
various drugs. Includes detailed assessments of the following types
of drugs: Antihypertensive agents Diuretics Anti-diabetic drugs
Anticonvulsant drugs Drugs for Parkinson's disease Antihistamines
and antiserotonins Cytokines and immunomodulators Non-opioid
analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents Antibacterial agents
Antiviral agents Drugs used in reproductive endocrinology Systemic
drugs for skin diseases Topical liposome drugs Topical
glucocorticoids
