Principles of General and Autonomic Pharmacology uses text, tables, and figures to teach students how to logically predict both therapeutic and adverse drug effects. It presents relevant material in a concise, focused, and student-friendly way, and can be covered effectively in a one-semester, introductory course in professional Pharmacology programs. Throughout the text prazosin and simvastatin are used as primary examples to illustrate drug metabolism and disposition, drug potency, and the influences of drugs on the autonomic nervous system. Each chapter within the text includes a section detailing how the information relates to the broader field of pharmacology and therapeutics. All the material in Principles of Autonomic Pharmacology has been extensively class-tested. It provides the vocabulary and solid foundation needed for further study in the professional curriculum, especially in advanced courses in drug metabolism, cardiovascular drugs, and drugs that act on the central nervous system. Robert Rodgers is a professor of pharmacology at the College of Pharmacy, University of Rhode Island. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California at Berkeley, a Master of Science from Oregon State University, and a Ph.D. in pharmacology from the University of Oklahoma, College of Medicine. He has been teaching autonomic and cardiovascular pharmacology to pharmacy and other professional students for over 30 years. The central focus of his research is the effects of hypertension and hormonal imbalances on cardiac function and metabolism. His research has been supported by the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association. He is a member of the International Society for Heart Research and the American Physiological Society.

This book approaches the basic features of autonomic dysfunction in a practical way, complemented by an examination of unique and didactic case reports. Unlike other books on autonomic disorders, its goal is to provide a brief, practical and ready to use resource for physicians faced with patients’ autonomic complaints. Autonomic dysfunctions are specific disorders that affect or are related to the autonomic nervous system. Despite being primarily a field of neurology, it also has important ties to cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology and many other medical specialties. Moreover, as the action of the autonomous system tends to be diffuse, affecting different systems and organs throughout the body, its disorders may present a complex and multifaceted background, complicating its diagnosis, clinical evaluation and management. Thus, it is important to gather all the relevant information about autonomic dysfunction in a handy and practical way, providing an accessible guide for professionals and practitioners across a wide range of specialties. The content presented in this book is divided into two main parts: In the first part, the general principles of autonomic dysfunction are discussed. Here the reader will find information on the anatomy, physiology and pharmacology of the nervous system, the classification of autonomic disorders, general evaluation of these disorders and the principles of their management. In the second part, clinical cases for the most important autonomic disorders are presented and discussed in detail, particularly in light of their special importance for differential diagnosis. Using a clinical case-based approach, Evaluation and Management of Autonomic Disorders offers readers – primarily but not exclusively general practitioners in the fields of neurology, internal medicine, family medicine and cardiology – rapid access to the information required for the evaluation and management of these complex patients.
