Features: This book is innovative and rich in content, comprehensive in pharmaceutical coverage, highly practical, and well reflects the medical characteristics of contemporary communities. It emphasizes the two key features of "practicality" and "novelty," integrating theory with practice to strive for practicality. In terms of layout, the book breaks away from the traditional single-category model, categorizing medications based on department and pharmacological action according to the characteristics of community disease patterns. It includes some recently introduced drugs and excludes those with significant side effects. The book promotes the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, collecting over 1,000 Western medications and more than 200 traditional Chinese patent medicines. It reflects new theories, technologies, and methods of medication, with emerging disciplines such as mental health medications for conditions like depression, autism, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, and suicidal tendencies being separately categorized under the "Psychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine" section. Additionally, medications for highly concerned diseases such as osteoporosis, obesity, and precocious puberty are introduced separately under the "Endocrine System Drugs" section. The book highlights pediatric medication, as children are one of the main populations in communities and medication for them can be challenging. To facilitate doctors in mastering pediatric medication, the book provides detailed explanations of drug usage.
