Human Drug Kinetics: A Course of Simulated Experiments - Saunders College - Hardcover

A complete, interactive course covering the fundamentals of pharmacology, this book/software teaching package includes an IBM-PC compatible disk which provides useful and flexible simulations of experiments. This integrated system is adaptable to many courses in the field, and is carefully structured to take students step by step thorough progressively difficult subject matter. The textbook gives readers information on twenty different drugs. The software guides students through administering and monitoring the drug in question, specifying dose according to sex, age, weight, and height. After the student runs the experiment, the program provides information in tables, graphs, or disposition diagrams to help interpret the results. The authors have marshalled a formidable range and depth of expertise to develop this reliable, thorough and comprehensive educational tool. The new pharmacokinetic model on which the simulations are built uses the experience gained in developing the well-known MacDope model, making Human Drug Kinetics mathematically sound and enormously realistic.Saunders, L. is the author of 'Human Drug Kinetics: A Course of Simulated Experiments - Saunders College - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780199630394 and ISBN 0199630399.
