Now in a fully updated seventh edition, Plumb’s Veterinary Drug Handbook
remains the most complete source of drug information relevant for
animals available. Providing referenced dosing recommendations in each
monograph, this book offers doses for a wide range of species,
including dogs, cats, exotic animals, and farm animals, in a single
resource. The book also includes detail on key aspects for appropriate
use of each drug, including pharmacology, pharmacokinetics,
contraindications, adverse effects, safety during pregnancy or nursing,
overdoses, drug interactions, monitoring, chemistry and stability,
storage, compatibility, and available products.
The seventh edition adds 22 new drug monographs, as well as updated
dosages and information for existing drugs. A noteworthy feature is the
Prescriber Highlights section found at the beginning of each monograph
that allows readers a quick method of finding important information for
that drug.
This is the convenient 5 x 8-inch pocket size; Plumb’s Veterinary Drug Handbook
is also available in an 8 ½ x 11-inch desk size for enhanced
readability and ease of use and as a mobile version. Plumb’s
exhaustive one-volume coverage of drugs approved for veterinary species
and non-approved (human) drugs that are used in veterinary practices
today make this book an essential reference for veterinarians,
veterinary technicians, veterinary pharmacologists, pharmacists with
veterinary patients, animal research or zoological facilities, and
libraries that serve these groups.
