Coverage of each drug class includes mechanisms of action, indications, therapeutic uses, side effects, interactions, and caveats regarding special populations such as pregnant and elderly patients.

Tables provide at-a-glance information and a disease-specific table of contents directs readers quickly to relevant drug chapters. |
