Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol Interactions with Drugs and Chemicals is a concise volume that identifies, documents, and assesses the capacity of alcohol to alter the toxicity of chemical pollutants and drugs in animal models and humans. The book systematically assesses interactions according to general chemical classes of inorganic and organic agents. It also presents an integrative discussion of the significance of these findings to public health. Alcohol Interactions with Drugs and Chemicals will be a valuable reference tool for environmental scientists, toxicologists, epidemiologists, and alcohol researchers studying the interactions of alcohol with drugs and chemical pollutants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic work on a vitally important and new topic contains over 1200 pages of complete information on chemical interactions as it pertains to environmental and medical concerns. It illustrates principles of interactions so you will have the conceptual basis for predicting responses to complex environmental mixtures-apply it to specific situations-theoretical and practical. To date, environmental standards regulate the effects of a single pollutant. Multiple Chemical Interactions is exhaustive coverage of how the multitude of chemicals in our world interact with human health. This book gives us critically new and complete data on an emerging field that will be of interest to all environmental scientists, environmental and public health professionals, toxicologists, industrial hygienists, regulators and libraries.

Download or read book Handbook of Drug Interactions written by Ashraf Mozayani and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-18 with total page 823 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adverse drug reactions and interactions are still a major headache for healthcare professionals around the world. The US Food and Drug Administration's database recorded almost 300,000 serious adverse events in 2009 alone, of which 45,000 instances proved fatal. This updated new edition of the indispensable guide to drug interactions incorporates fresh research completed since the book's original publication by Humana Press in 2004. Additions include a new section on pharmacogenomics, a rapidly growing field that explores the genetic basis for the variability of responses to drugs. This new material reviews important polymorphisms in drug metabolizing enzymes and applies the findings to forensic interpretation, using case studies involving opiates as exemplars. Existing chapters from the first edition have in most cases been updated and reworked to reflect new data or incorporate better tables and diagrams, as well as to include recent drugs and formulations. Recent references have been inserted too. The handbook features extra material on illicit drug use, with a new chapter tackling the subject that covers cocaine, amphetamines and cannabis, among others. The section on the central nervous system also deals with a number of drugs that are abused illicitly, such as benzodiazepines, opiates flunitrazepam and GHB, while so-called 'social' drugs such as alcohol and nicotine are still discussed in the book's section on environmental and social pharmacology. Focusing as before on detailed explanation and incorporating both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic drug interactions, this book will continue to be a lodestar for health and forensic professionals as well as students.
Download or read book The Use and Misuse of Sleeping Pills written by Wallace B. Mendelson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hypnos (the Greek god of sleep) and Thanatos (death) were the twin sons of Nyx, the goddess of night (Fox, 1964). Hypnos lived in a dusky valley in the land of the Cimerians, watered by Lethe, the river of forgetfulness. He brought sleep to both men and gods, and sometimes sent his sons Morpheus, Icelus, and Phantasus to appear in dreams. At the door of his abode grew poppies and other herbs which induce sleep (Hamilton, 1961). This book deals with these herbs and their subsequent imitations. Before launching into an examination of hypnotics, it might be well to comment briefly on the manner in which this was written, and to acknowledge the help of a number of individuals. My intention was that this be useful not only for the physician or scientist, but also for the student. Thus each chapter contains an introductory section which pro vides background material. Chapter 3, for instance, describes the general principles of drug absorption, distribution, and metabolism before dis cussing the pharmacologic properties of each hypnotic. In addition, each chapter concludes with a section which summarizes the main issues.

Download or read book Drug Interactions written by Philip D. Hansten and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A reference text for clinicians, pharmacologists, and physicians provides summaries of the human in vivo interactions of drug with other medications. The text assumes a basic understanding of pharmacological and physiological principles, and delineates current knowledge on the mechanisms of drug-drug interaction, clinical significance, and precautions to be exercised during drug therapy. The drug-drug interactions are arranged by drug or drug class, but, when appropriate, interactions for a given drug may be given in several locations in the text. All of the drug-drug interaction covered have been assigned to 1 of 3 categories of clinical significance (viz., major, moderate, or minor) based on the severity of the potential interaction. The interactions are listed under 16 drug categories: antiarrhythmics, oral anticogulants, general anticoagulants, antidiabetics, antihypertensive, anti-infective, anti-neoplastic, digitalis drug, diuretics, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, tricylic antidepressants,and drug interactions with ethanol, hormones, phenothiazine, and salicylate.
