The Renal Drug Handbook The Ultimate (1)
UK Renal Pharmacy Group
PDF20191109 pages7.3 MB
This 5th edition handbook, edited by Caroline Ashley and Aileen Dunleavy for the UK Renal Pharmacy Group, provides evidence‑based dosing recommendations for a wide range of medications in patients with renal impairment. It includes detailed sections on colchicine, antihypertensives, lipid‑lowering agents, immunosuppressants, and vitamin D supplementation, highlighting renal and hepatic clearance pathways. Practical guidance on dose reductions, interval adjustments, and contraindications for various stages of chronic kidney disease is presented. The text also outlines clinically relevant drug‑drug interactions, especially those involving CYP3A4 and P‑glycoprotein pathways. Foreword by Professor Sir John Cunningham underscores its relevance to nephrology practice.
