Description
|
Study of newer drugs takes lot of time, and there is no unified source of newer drugs. One has to extract such information in bigger books like Current Medical Diagnosis and Treatment, Harrisons’ Principles of Internal Medicine, or books of pharmacology like Katzung’s/Goodman & Gillman’s. Newer drugs have also become very relevant in postgraduate medical entrance examinations (PGMEE). Therefore, a handy update is needed. Reading newer drugs in textbooks consumes too much of time and is becoming a challenge in a short span of time. A small handbook like “newer drugs” meets requirements of PGMEE aspirants and also undergraduates and practicing clinicians
A newer drug is a book which contains comprehensive information about newer drugs at one place. Students don’t have to search different textbooks for new drugs. In Postgraduate Medical Entrance Examinations, generally 10% of total pharmacology questions are from new drugs. Also it is a handy book for practitioners and students of pharmacology and medicine for recent updates on newer drugs.
