The first edition saw me through veterinary school but having obtained a copy of the second edition has prompted me to re-read. Not only does it provide an excellent review of veterinary pharmaceuticals, it also relates them nicely back to physiology so it is a fantastic review of many of the principles of internal medicine as an added bonus (painless too!).As a general practitioner I especially appreciated the chapter on adverse drug reactions, which alerted me to a few common ADRs I was not familiar with. I also enjoyed the comprehensive chapter on antiparasitic drugs as these are so common in practice and reading labels just doesn't cut it when clients ask detailed questions about interactions, efficacy, resistance and all those things clients want to know. Each page held a new discovery. eg I did not know that piperonyl butoxide antagonises the antiparasitic action of fipronil...but when clients feel one isn't working they add the other then feel doubly frustrated when they get nowhere. The tables in this chapter in particular are exceptional references and will save one from sifting through I don't-know-how-many journals to get the answer!Its a very practical book in that respect, which is great for busy vets.It provides a friendly review of the principles of pharmacology and chapters on everything from chemotherapy to drugs and reproduction and ocular clinical pharmacology, and dose rates and extensive tables are provided throughout.One of the nicest things is that detailed info on adverse effects are provided, even if only one or two reports exist, allowing clinicians to make the most informed decisions.
