Neuropsychopharmacology reviews the principles of pharmacology with a focus on the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system. Beyond autonomic and central nervous system pharmacology, this volume uniquely discusses psychiatric disorders and the pharmacological interventions that are available for conditions including depression, schizophrenia and anxiety disorders. With a focus on these specific body systems, readers will see end-of-chapter questions that offer real-world case studies, as well as multiple-choice questions for further learning. Beneficial features and content also include two extensive examination tests, which each contain 100 questions for better learning or to be used in teaching, and a glossary.Helpful appendices cover high-alert medications and toxicology effects on the nervous system. Each chapter will contain classifications of medications, pharmacokinetics, mechanism of action, clinical indications and toxicities.- Describes pharmacology principles pertaining to the central and autonomic nervous system- Identifies pharmacological interventions for psychiatric disorders including current evidence-based interventions for depression, schizophrenia and anxiety disorders- Features chapter outlines, end-of-chapter questions, real-world case studies and examinations for deeper learning or teaching

The Science of Pharmacology offers a detailed and contemporary exploration of medications, delving into the scientific principles behind drug actions and their therapeutic applications. It is an essential resource for students in pharmacology and pharmaceutical sciences, providing foundational knowledge on a wide range of topics. The book addresses the effects of drugs on various bodily systems, such as the nervous, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems, and also covers their impact on mental health and behavior. Beyond the core topics, the book also discusses special subjects like herbal medications and drug interactions.It includes valuable teaching materials, including test banks and quizzes, and offers comprehensive insights into toxicological treatments, making it an invaluable tool for both learning and teaching in the field.Showcases fundamental information on the basics of the science of pharmacology, exploring the study of drug actions and their therapeutic usesIncludes illustrations and tables to enhance learning experiencesOffers study questions, case questions, and other beneficial learning material for students, as well as test banks, PowerPoint slides, and video content for instructors
