About this deal

Following on from the success of the previous three editions, Professor Michael Neal, one of the great teachers of medical pharmacology, has extensively revised and updated the fourth editon to take account of the rapid developments in the field.

The author discusses the mechanisms of action of each drug, indicating the therapeutics of choice for specific conditions. Obviously I'm not suggesting anyone unqualified attempts to self diagnose - it's more a case of being informed about the effects and implications of the prescription you've received. Each subject is covered over two-pages, with visuals and information on one page and drugs on the other. The market-leading at a Glance series is popular among healthcare students, and newly qualified practitioners for its concise, simple approach and excellent illustrations.Prof Neal has updated and republished this fantastic, all you need to know for exams and exactly what you want to know to survive, clinical medicine book! To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. For example, acetylcholine is a transmitter substance released from motor nerve endings; it activates receptors in skeletal muscle, initiating a sequence of events that results in contraction of the muscle. Hormones are chemicals released into the bloodstream; they produce their physiological effects on tissues possessing the necessary specific hormone receptors. As more of a visual memory gal, the clear comprehensive diagrams often appear to me through the haze that descends during ward rounds and exams when all seems lost.

This edition features new and revised illustrations, additional pedagogical tools, and enhanced online content.Transmitter substances are chemicals released from nerve terminals that diffuse across the synaptic cleft and bind to the receptors. There is also further information available online, that includes flashcards, cases, list of core drugs, etc. Widely recognised as the best starting point for pharmacology study, the internationally best-selling Medical Pharmacology at a Glance is an ideal companion for all students of the health sciences. Kinase‐linked receptors are surface receptors that possess (usually) intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity.

Medical Pharmacology at a Glance is one of the most renowned undergraduate texts in the field of medical pharmacology. As a specialised publication with a limited readership and print run it will naturally be more expensive than a mass market book, but at around thirty pounds it's cheaper than many medical texts! Once again they have come up with a gem to navigate your way through the mindboggling area of pharmacology, neatly pigeon–holing them under the bodily systems for easy reference. Antagonists reduce the probability of the transmitter substance (or another agonist) combining with the receptor and so reduce or block its action.By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions.
