Abstract:	To deliver the best possible patient-centered care, healthcare professionals must understand how to maximize the effectiveness of medications, minimize adverse reactions, and promote favorable health outcomes. Pharmacotherapy Principles and Practice, Seventh Edition provides a strong foundation of evidence-based strategies to educate learners on the process of developing, executing, monitoring, and assessing medication therapy. This comprehensive guide will help you develop a sound understanding of the fundamental principles behind pharmacotherapy for various diseases. This seventh edition reflects the latest findings in the field and includes a new chapter on health equity. The new chapter is followed by five chapters focused on special populations: pediatrics, geriatrics, palliative care, critical care, and global health and travel medicine. An additional 97 predominately disease-based chapters review epidemiology, etiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation and diagnosis, nonpharmacologic therapy, and pharmacologic therapy, with emphasis on clear recommendations for medication selection, desired outcomes, dosing, and patient monitoring.
