About The 6th Edition
About the 6th EditionThe Sixth Edition of this bestselling handbook remains the must-have reference for every practicing veterinarian. Over 70 new drug monographs have been added to the new edition, and dosages and information for older monographs have been updated to reflect the latest research. A separate section on topical medications has been added, and additional updates have been made to sections on ophthalmic drugs and small animal therapeutic diets. Completely new to the Sixth Edition is a two-color format and a redesigned 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, as well as a new appendix on overdose decontamination. Plumb’s Veterinary Drug Handbook is available in an 8 1/2 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. Contributors to the 6th edition include: C. A. Tony Buffington, Andrea G. Cannon, Gigi Davidson, Camille DeClementi, Michelle DuMond, Dinah Jordan, Sandra Koch, and Elaine Lust Last updated May, 2008 |
