This book focuses on understanding and treating common illnesses which affect children, adolescents, adults and the elderly, though excluding highly complex areas of critical care and cancer. Almost 80 percent of illnesses can be resolved by the family medicine doctor, who is trained to recognize the remaining 20 percent requiring specialist care and referral. Several drugs, many of which are very potent and effective, have limitations of side effects and interactions. Some drugs cannot be used by patients who have comorbidities, or who suffer from failure of vital organs. Detailed information on all these aspects of prescribing have been compiled from the information obtained from reputed global and Indian professional organizations.
The authors of this title have added their decades of experience to present evidence-based recommendations in a practical and easy-to-read style. This Manual is expected to enhance the care of patients who come to the physicians with great hope and expectation.
