Fundamentals of Pharmacology for Veterinary Technicians

This book presents a thorough discussion of the medications dispensed by veterinary and laboratory animal technicians, including how they may help or harm animals. After reviewing the basic anatomy and physiology of the body systems, drugs used to treat diseases of those body systems are presented in a clear, categorical manner. The extensive use of tables, illustrations and photos help readers review material and serve as a quick reference in the classroom and clinical settings, as well as for certification examinations preparation. Additionally, two interactive CD-ROMs describe the mechanics of calculations of drug doses and solutions and the theory and mechanics of fluid therapy.
