Description
This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. This best-selling book uses a diagnostic

drawn from clinical practice, and explanations and graded exercises (with answers) cover the calculations required to administer tablets,
mixtures and injections; to arrive at different drip rates; and to administer paediatric dosages safely.
