Renal Pharmacotherapy: Dosage Adjustment of Medications Eliminated by the Kidneys

Focused on adjusting drug dosages for patients with impaired kidney function. The text highlights how modern recalibrated laboratory values for serum creatinine can lead to dangerous errors when using traditional formulas to estimate renal health. To address these risks, the authors provide a comprehensive, evidence-based list of over 300 medications requiring adjustment alongside several hundred that do not. They emphasize the utility of automated clinical decision support systems to alert providers when dosing changes are necessary for patient safety. Ultimately, the work serves as a clinical resource to help practitioners balance drug effectiveness with the prevention of medication-related toxicity.Get the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Renal-Pharmacotherapy-Adjustment-Medications-Eliminated/dp/1461457998?&linkCode=ll2&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=65b595250f80e7a4c763fcb0e4f6d25d&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlYou can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/pharmacy_simpleProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
