Abrams' Clinical Drug Therapy: Rationales for Nursing Practice, 13th Edition continues a long tradition of guiding students and instructors through the practice of safe and effective medication administration. Expert pharmacology educators and clinicians explain the "why" behind each nursing action and emphasize individualized nursing care and drug therapy to promote optimal outcomes in every care setting.

Filled with case studies, concept maps, and other engaging features, this updated 13th Edition reflects an enhanced emphasis on NCLEX (R) preparation, including practice questions in each chapter and new Clinical Judgment Case Studies in each unit. Drug therapy pertinent to the prevention and treatment of disease is provided in each chapter. Appropriate pathophysiology coverage is now streamlined and more accessible via thePoint (R), along with a robust suite of other online resources that reinforce students' preparation for success in class, on their NCLEX exams, and throughout their nursing careers.
