Description
The only comprehensive work to cover all aspects of diuretic agents, the book discusses the pharmacology and toxicology of diuretic agents
as well as the physiological effects. Experts in the field present the principles and experimental approaches for the study of interactions
between pharmacologic compounds in relation to specific target organs. Diuretic Agents contains information on the mechanisms
of action and application of diuretics, and details FDA regulations and pharmaceutical industry guidelines.
Audience
Researchers in physiology (especially renal), pharmacology, and toxicology.
