This is a great resource not only for pharmacists but medical providers as well. As a Nurse Practitioner (this was a text for my pharmacology class) the information is valuable in learning and understanding the pharmacology as well as the pharmacotherapy of managing various disease states. It is easy to understand and presents the pharmacological management well. I have used this book many times in helping me to learn and understand how to treat my patients. I'm sure it would prove to be a valuable resource for the physician assistant as well as the physician. This should be on the shelf in every providers bookshelf. And the pages should be well dog-eared.

I just received the pharmacotherapy handbook and haven't started yet,but i would like to know what's the difference between the hand book and the text.

Very easy to read, yet detailed book of pharmacotherapy. This book would be excellent for nurses, NPs, physician assistants, or medical students. I was very pleased with my investment in this book.

This was a great item in great condition, but I did not receive it as quickly as the add made it sound.

The book was in good shape and shipped in great time. The only problem I have found is that there are 20 pages MISSING from the index! This really angers me because there was no indication of this in the description.

Pharmacotherapy is the very best pharmacology text I've ever seen. The drugs are up to date as possible, the pathophysiology review is exceptionally helpful and the resources and studies addressed are excellent. While I'm a FNP student, not a pharmacist, I plan to continue to purchase updated versions for my practice in the future. It is an invaluable resource across health care disciplines. Special populations (ethnic groups, women, elderly, etc) are singled out at the end of each chapter while the discussion of comorbid conditions is thoughtful and realistic. Each chapter begins with key points that are also notated again within the chapter. The tables included help solidify overall characteristics of classes and compare individual drugs. Some providers may be more accustomed to trade names and find this difficult since they are generally not included except for some of the newest drugs.

The book was sent via USPS and sent back due to signature needed. That was ok yet I have requested the book be sent back to me which I have already paid for and nothing yet. I have also emailed directly to the sender and no response.

It's one of the best resources to keep informed about pharmacotherapy. Actual and clear contents.

This is actually a great book for pharmacy students and pharmacists alike. It is much more understandable than Goodman and Gilman.

The book I purchased was in perfect condition, it came within a three to four day time period, and was cheaper than if I had gotten it through my local bookstore.
Great place to shop for textbooks.

This is a required textbook for most Colleges of Pharmacy. The price is
equal to or less than bookstore WITH the added convenience of home delivery. It's a very heavy book, so this is a big plus. It comes with
a downloadable version and you can "carry" your lap top around with
text in it. Glad I ordered on Amazon.

I bought the casebook and the textbook together and found them to coincide nicely in their information. I even told my classmates about the deal. Thanks Amazon.

I was upset that I spent over $148.00 and found that the edges of the book were crumbled, could not send it back because I needed it for class

My 7th ed of Pharmacotherapy arrived last week. So far the information is more detailed and written at a higher level than the 6th ed which I consider an enormous improvment. But where is the E-Book?? Where is the CD that came with the 6th ed?? There are many references to on-line site [...] in the book but all the info is 6th ed. Do I have to lug this 15 pound monstrosity around with me all the time or just until I get a hernia? I e-mailed medical education@mcgraw-hill.com but have not heard from them. My review of 6th edition isn't shown. I did not like it very much. Too basic to teach from at my hospital. I hope that other chapters are as good as the ones I have read.
