商品描述
This book, written by a pharmacologist and a nurse, discusses issues related to drug use in the older adult. It discusses the effects of medications as well as other drugs (OTC, recreational, anti-aging) in the aging body but also the effects of drug use in age-related diseases.
The purpose is two-fold. The first is to present a comprehensive evaluation of drug use in the older adult based on principles of pharmacology and gerontology and validated by clinical observations, reviews and trials. Professional care givers for the older adult - nurses, other practitioners, and technicians will benefit by learning the many ways in which age and age-dependent diseases influence medication efficacy, adverse reactions and toxicities. Understanding these relations creates the opportunity to improve efficacy and minimize adverse and toxic reactions and provide optimal health care. The book discusses drug use in a wide variety of age-related diseases, syndromes and conditions.
The second purpose is to present a readable reference for the interested older adult on all types of drug use - medications to recreational to anti-aging drugs. This book provides scientifically validated information on current drug topics that are usually covered by unsubstantiated marketing information.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書由一位藥理學家和一位護理師撰寫，討論與老年人用藥相關的議題。它探討了藥物以及其他藥品（如非處方藥、娛樂性藥物、抗衰老藥物）在老化身體中的影響，還有用藥對與年齡相關疾病的影響。
本書的目的有兩個。第一個是基於藥理學和老年學的原則，並通過臨床觀察、回顧和試驗進行驗證，對老年人用藥進行全面評估。專業的老年人護理人員——護理師、其他從業人員和技術人員，將通過了解年齡及年齡相關疾病如何影響藥物的療效、不良反應和毒性，受益匪淺。理解這些關係創造了改善療效、最小化不良和毒性反應的機會，並提供最佳的健康護理。本書討論了各種與年齡相關的疾病、綜合症和狀況中的用藥情況。
第二個目的是為有興趣的老年人提供一個可讀的參考資料，涵蓋各類型的用藥——從藥物到娛樂性藥物再到抗衰老藥物。本書提供了經科學驗證的當前藥物主題資訊，這些主題通常被不實的市場行銷資訊所掩蓋。
