Description	Pharmacology for Nurses is intended for pre-licensure nursing students in an introductory program. It provides a fundamental understanding of the therapeutic use of drugs so the nurse can provide safe and effective care to the client. Along with a discussion of each body system, the text also reviews the pathophysiology of various disease processes and medications used in treatment. The table of contents presents 40 chapter topics, organized into 11 units. The first unit, consisting of 3 chapters, provides a broad overview of pharmacology, with the following 10 units focused on specific body systems. Pharmacology for Nurses helps students prepare for the licensing exam by offering applicable, real-life content in short, manageable sections; it focuses on common client conditions that nurses will encounter throughout their career and embraces a skills orientation (what does a nurse do). The text presents information in a holistic manner that ties the disease process to its pharmacological treatment. This approach will assist students in connecting the pathophysiology of the disease process to the nursing care of the client. Most importantly, Pharmacology for Nurses will give students the confidence to safely administer medications to clients, as well as provide medication education to clients and their caregivers.
