The Nurse's Handbook of Combination Drugs is the first combination drug handbook of its type. It allows the nurse to find all the incompatibilities; contraindications; interactions with drugs, food, and activities; and adverse reactions that come from each combination drug in the handbook. It highlights nursing considerations, including precautions, administration techniques and information, and key patient-teaching points. It provides vital information on chemical and therapeutic classes, FDA pregnancy risk category, and controlled substance schedule. This text will help reduce the risk of medication errors by giving access to accurate, reliable drug information that's relevant to the nursing practice.
