The agents described range from antibacterial and antifungal to antiparasitic and antiviral agents, and include immunomodulators and immunizing agents. For each drug discussed, the book allows rapid access to the essential facts concerning its structure and mechanism of action, the spectrum of its activity, its pharmacokinetics, its adverse effects, and its resistance. This book provides medical students, physicians, and allied health professionals with rapid access to the core principles of antimicrobial pharmacology, and a foundation for decisions about the use of antimicrobials in daily practice. For many medical students and physicians, the task of quickly obtaining sufficient, accurate, and up-to-date information about the pharmacology of antimicrobials often involves consulting either lengthy textbooks or inadequate tabular guides.

The agents described range from antibacterial and antifungal to antiparasitic and antiviral agents, and include immunomodulators and immunizing agents. For each drug discussed, the book allows rapid access to the essential facts concerning its structure and mechanism of action, the spectrum of its activity, its pharmacokinetics, its adverse effects, and its resistance.

Pressezitat
"This is the first book I am aware of that reviews only the antimicrobial agents. In general, a book of this kind is very useful." -Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal"...Dr. Axelsen provides sufficient, accurate, up-to-date information for physicians and allied health professionals as well. The quick review and update of pharmacokinetics, adverse effects, and resistance proved helpful for me, and I believe for our readers as well." - Comprehensive Therapy
