Abstract

"Drugs are often counterfeited to reduce manufacture costs, while still marketing it at as an authentic product. Increased incidence of drug counterfeiting is most noticeable in developing countries, which may not have the resources to supply counterfeit detection devices on a large scale. It is important to consider the problems caused and propose options for controlling and reducing the prevalence of counterfeit medications. Different technologies are needed to identify the chemical properties of a questioned drug product, which can then be used to determine its authenticity. This volume focuses on current technological approaches that are able to detect counterfeited pharmaceuticals"--

Abstract

"When it comes to the use of psychotropic agents in pediatric patients, it is not merely a question of extrapolating data from adults to children and adolescents; special consideration must be given to the effects of the drug on developing bodies and brains. That is what makes this fourth edition of the Clinical Manual of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology so essential. Updated to include a succinct yet thorough review of the most recent evidence-based information and data-driven best treatment practices in child and adolescent psychiatry, this new volume is organized by DSM-5-TR diagnosis and offers an exhaustive analysis of the use of drugs in nine disorder categories that include depressive disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorder, eating disorders, and early schizophrenia and psychotic illnesses. Each chapter includes comprehensive medication tables that allow easy reference of dosing, side effects, and tips for management as well as key points that summarize the most essential information for treating clinicians. Whether they are clinical psychiatrists, medical students on psychiatry rotation, advanced practice providers, or pediatricians, readers will benefit from the depth of information in this indispensable desktop reference"--

Abstract

La contraception est un enjeu majeur de santé publique concernant toutes les femmes en période d'activité génitale. Comment fournir à chaque femme la contraception la plus adaptée et la plus sûre ? L'ouvrage, élaboré sous forme de chapitres synthétiques et pratiques, structurés toujours selon le même plan (la définition de la situation clinique, son épidémiologie, le risque des contraceptions de développer l'éventuelle pathologie et enfin les stratégies contraceptives dans le contexte clinique défini), a pour objet de passer en revue les diverses situations cliniques, de la plus simple aux pathologies plus rares, face auxquelles les éléments de choix des différentes stratégies contraceptives envisageables sont moins connus. Une solution contraceptive est toujours proposée pour chaque situation clinique sur la base des recommandations françaises ou internationales régulièrement mises à jour au fil des progrès de la recherche. Ainsi, cet ouvrage tente de répondre aux questions précises des praticiens de terrain au vu de l'évolution constante des différentes molécules ou contraceptions disponibles. Cette 2e édition, entièrement mise à jour grâce à l'actualisation de la littérature récente et avec les dernières recommandations, est enrichie de 9 chapitres supplémentaires traitant notamment de la contraception masculine, des pathologies psychiatriques, de la sexualité, des applications avec une aide à la contraception et une partie consacrée aux modalités pratiques d'utilisation Il s'adresse à tous les praticiens concernés à l'hôpital comme en médecine de ville : gynécologues médicaux, obstétriciens, chirurgiens gynécologiques, généralistes, sages-femmes et internes en formation.

Abstract

In the warped world of prescription drug pricing, generic drugs can cost more than branded ones, old drugs can be relaunched at astronomical prices, and low-cost options are shut out of the market. In Drugs, Money and Secret Handshakes, Robin Feldman shines a light into the dark corners of the pharmaceutical industry to expose a web of shadowy deals in which higher-priced drugs receive favorable treatment and patients are channeled toward the most expensive medicines. At the center of this web are the highly secretive middle players who establish coverage levels for patients and negotiate with drug companies. By offering lucrative payments to these middle players (as well as to doctors and hospitals), drug companies ensure that inexpensive drugs never gain traction. This system of perverse incentives has delivered the kind of exorbitant drug prices - and profits - that everyone loves except for those who pay the bills.

Abstract

A slow and consistent study of the approaches for drug design can help the foundation for a good scientific intuition. This edition includes over 30 new illustrations, numerous new mechanistic schemes and enhanced original figures. In addition, the use of color makes its study more pleasant and impressive. The Second Edition has been thoroughly revised with a modern look. The chapters on QSAR and Drug Metabolism have been extended, emphasizing concepts, such as the hyperconjugative effect or the anomeric effect, in which the student normally finds it difficult to understand. Stereoelectronic effects are essential to explain the mechanism of action of drugs and therefore, its agile and intuitive handling will allow the student access to both chemical and biological mechanisms, in a more rational way. The text is illustrated with hundreds of formulas and many tables that facilitate the understanding of this interesting discipline, which is halfway between Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry and Pharmacology. This Volume is aimed at building basis principles on drug design and it is likely to be of interest to students reading, pharmacy, pharmacology, and pharmaceutical chemistry. This book emphasizes general principles of drug design and drug action from an organic chemical perspective, rather than from the overview of specific classes of drugs, allowing the reader to extrapolate information to many related classes of drug molecules. This volume presents an organic chemistry's perspective of how drug are designed and assuming no prior knowledge of biochemistry, and pharmacology. It is written in an informal, clear style so that undergraduates can easily understand the concepts presented.
