Description
The only comprehensive work to cover all aspects of diuretic agents, the book discusses the pharmacology and toxicology of diuretic agents as well as the physiological effects. Experts in the field present the principles and experimental approaches for the study of interactions between pharmacologic compounds in relation to specific target organs. Diuretic Agents contains information on the mechanisms of action and application of diuretics, and details FDA regulations and pharmaceutical industry guidelines.
Reviews / Votes
"The Contributors are a 'who's who' of the diuretic field, and the book encompasses a broad range of topics from very basic molecular concepts to practical and clinical uses of diuretics. The book is a classic in its field. It will be widely cited as a reference and should be used by physicians who use these agents in everyday practice." --Richard J. Glassock, MD, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, for DOODY'S PUBLISHING REVIEWSMore details
