Pharmacology: Connections to Nursing Practice examines key pharmacologic concepts and mechanisms in the context of their links to nursing practice and patient care.The authors approach the text recognizing that pharmacology is not an academic discipline to be leaed for its own sake but a critical tool for preventing disease and promoting healing. By using prototype drugs and grouping drugs by body systems and diseases, the text provides a strong foundation for mastering medications and their therapeutic uses.Updated with new FDA-approved drugs, the 5th Edition includes all-new case studies building clinical decision-making skills, as well as newly added answers to case study and end-of-chapter review questions so you can can quickly confirm or remediate your understanding of key chapter concepts.note about authors: Michael Adams has been credited in various way over the years, to include Michael Patrick Adams & Michael P.
