Pharmaceutical Calculations: A Conceptual Approach, is a book that combines conceptual and procedural understanding for students and will guide you to master prerequisite skills to carry out accurate compounding and dosage regimen calculations. It is a book that makes the connection between basic sciences and pharmacy. It describes the most important concepts in pharmaceutical sciences thoroughly, accurately and consistently through various commentaries and activities to make you a scientific thinker, and to help you succeed in college and licensure exams. Calculation of the error associated with a dose measurement can only be carried out after understanding the concept of accuracy versus precision in a measurement. Similarly, full appreciation of drug absorption and distribution to tissues can only come about after understanding the process of transmembrane passive diffusion. Early understanding of these concepts will allow reinforcement and deeper comprehension of other related concepts taught in other courses. More weight is placed on the qualitative understanding of fundamental concepts, like tonicity vs osmotic pressure, diffusion vs osmosis, crystalloids vs colloids, osmotic diuretics vs plasma expanders, rate of change vs rate constants, drug accumulation vs drug fluctuation, loading dose vs maintenance dose, body surface area (BSA) vs body weight (BW) as methods to adjust dosages, and much more, before considering other quantitative problems. In one more significant innovation, the origin and physical significance of all final forms of critical equations is always described in detail, thus, allowing recognition of the real application and limitations of an equation. Specific strategies are explained step-by-step in more than 100 practice examples taken from the fields of compounding pharmacy, pharmaceutics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacology and medicine.

Pharmaceutical and clinical calculations are critical to the delivery of safe, effective, and competent patient care and professional practice. Pharmaceutical and Clinical Calculations, Second Edition addresses this crucial component, while emphasizing contemporary pharmacy practices. Presenting the information in a well-organized and easy-to-understand manner, the authors explain the principles of clinical calculations involving dose and dosing regimens in patients with impaired organ functions, aminoglycoside therapy, pediatric and geriatric dosing, and radiopharmaceuticals with appropriate examples. Each chapter begins with an introduction to the topic, followed by a comprehensive discussion. Key concepts are highlighted throughout the book for easy retrieval. The examples presented in the text reflect the practice environment in community, hospital, and nuclear pharmacy settings, and the clinical problems presented reflect a direct application of underlying theoretical principles and discussions. Pharmaceutical and Clinical Calculations, Second Edition is an essential tool for any practitioner who needs to reinforce their knowledge of the subject and is a valuable study guide for the Pharmacy Board examination.

A book in pharmaceutical calculations laden with worked examples and making it easy for even the slowest leaner to grasp the concepts of mathematics in pharmaceutical practice. The author has been teaching pharmaceutical calculations at the university level for the past twenty-five years. The author also realized that students come from various backgrounds, some being good in mathematics and some lacking the proper background and hence, not as good. The manual is designed to simply provide a reference material in pharmaceutical calculations that can be used by students of all levels (dispensers, pharmaceutical assistants, and technicians as well as pharmacy degree students) regardless of their backgrounds. The manual is an asset to both students and tutors alike. It is also intended to impart ability to students to work independently and understand practical problems that occur in practice from time to time. In writing this manual, the author carefully followed various curricula of pharmacy at certificate, diploma, and degree levels of various institutions. The manual also addresses components of the curriculum of nursing courses, particularly calculations involving doses and dosages. Thus, trainers will choose topics relevant to the level they are dealing with. The manual is enriched with over 350 worked examples and about 150 practice questions with answers to make self-study possible. With many practical worked examples, even the slowest learner can be taken onboard. Furthermore, this manual will be a quick reference for practicing pharmaceutical technicians, nurses, and pharmacists.
