Publisher's Synopsis
The Sixth Edition of this bestselling handbook includes over 70 new drug monographs, as well as updated dosages and information for older monographs. A separate section on topical medications has been added, and sections on ophthalmic drugs and small animal therapeutic diets have been updated. Completely new to the Sixth Edition is a two–color format and new monograph layout, which enables faster access to much–needed information. The Sixth Edition features new overdose information from the ASPCA® Animal Poison Control Center on 50 of the drugs most commonly associated with animal overdoses, and a new appendix on overdose decontamination.
Plumb’s Veterinary Drug Handbook is available in an 8 ½ x 11–inch desk size for enhanced readability and ease of use, as well as the convenient pocket size and electronic formats. Plumb’s one–volume coverage of drugs approved for veterinary species and non–approved (human) drugs that are used in veterinary practices today make this book an essential reference for veterinarians, veterinary technicians, veterinary pharmacologists, pharmacists with veterinary patients, animal research or zoological facilities, and libraries that serve these groups.
