Medicine management is an important and demanding aspect of nursing practice. It requires both clinical knowledge and the use of professional judgement. This accessible book is designed to help both practising and student nurses prepare to deal with the challenges of medicine management. It covers the principles and skills involved in a range of common medicine management scenarios and will help nursing students integrate their knowledge of physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology and nursing care.

This handy book:

  • Is based on 21 practical case studies, which help you learn about effective medicine management and test your understanding of essential drug groups.
  • Helps you gain confidence in your knowledge of pharmacology
  • Highlights the nurse’s role in identifying the therapeutic and adverse effects of medicines on a patient

The cases are ideal for preparing for exams, tests and working in practice, as each one includes self-test questions and answers.

"The book offers a unique and engaging approach to an important subject that most students find daunting. Realistic case scenarios are used as a catalyst to introduce information and concepts that underpin practice. The presentation style supports the active participation of the student with the inclusion of questions at the beginning of each topic offering a platform to explore key areas whilst referring to the scenario. I highly recommend it to pre-registered student nurses."
Kris Paget, Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Health, Social Work and Education, Kingston University, UK

"This collection of case studies provides a unique and user friendly guide to commonly seen pharmacological therapies and treatment options across the lifespan. The case studies have been carefully selected to provide the diverse care needs of complex disease processes in a person centred way. Each case study is relevant to the role of the Nurse and will provide essential and core information whether nurses are working in either a medical or surgical clinical setting.

Government Health Care Directives provide the essential clinical evidence based theory necessary to promote medicine adherence and each chapter provides the relevant pathophysiology which is essential to underpin the safe administration of medication therapies.

The role of the nurse in medicine management with respect to patient education and the professional responsibilities of monitoring and evaluating complex medication therapies is presented in each case study. This provides an holistic approach to the care of patients receiving complex medication therapies."
Barry Ricketts, Senior Lecturer, Adult Nursing, Oxford Brookes University, UK
