Stockley's Drug Interactions Pocket Companion 2010

Stockley’s Drug Interactions Pocket Companion is a reference work that provides concise, accurate, and clinically relevant information to healthcare professionals. Monographs are based on published sources including clinical studies, case reports, and systematic reviews, and are fully referenced.

This book provides the busy healthcare professional with quick and easy access to clinically relevant, evaluated and evidence-based information about drug interactions. As with the full reference work this publication attempts to answer the following questions:

1. Are the drugs or substances in question known to interact or is the interaction only theoretical and speculative?
2. If they do interact, how serious is it?
3. Has it been described many times or only once
4. Are all patients affected or only a few?
5. Is it best to avoid some drug combinations altogether or can the interaction be accommodated in some way?
6. What alternative and safer drugs can be used instead?
