Description
Pharmaceutical medicine is the area of common ground between medical practice, the pharmaceutical industry and government. It includes all the medical aspects of pharmaceutical companies' research work in the development of new drugs, but pharmaceutical physicians must also be aware of the political, economic and legal framework in which they practise. This book looks at these aspects of pharmaceutical medicine to keep up with the changes in this field but also to cover the regulation of pharmaceutical products in the USA. This book is designed to be of interest to pharmacologists, clinical research associates and pharmaceutical industry marketing personnel and management.
