Features: "Chinese Clinical Pharmacology" consists of over 6 million words. The book is primarily divided into two main parts: General Principles and Specific Sections. It also includes dedicated chapters on the use of drugs in various clinical departments, as well as an appendix providing various pharmacological parameters. The General Principles section mainly introduces fundamental knowledge, basic theories, and basic techniques related to clinical drug use, along with appropriate coverage of recent advancements and future directions. The Specific Sections are organized by system diseases and comprehensively cover contemporary drugs and potentially new drugs entering the market. For widely used important drugs, detailed information is provided on their chemical structure, physicochemical properties, pharmacokinetics, pharmacological effects, clinical applications and evaluations, adverse reactions and prevention/treatment, drug interactions, formulations, and dosage. Additionally, practical issues in clinical drug use are addressed, offering information on medication regimens, timing of administration, and compatibility of drugs. For non-key drugs in the same category or newly launched drugs, a comparative narrative method is used to briefly introduce their characteristics of action.
