A Dictionary of Medicines
This comprehensive medical dictionary identifies various medications and compounds, detailing their uses, proprietary names, and availability (prescription-only versus over-the-counter). It frequently outlines side effects, precautions for specific patient groups (e.g., pregnant women, those with pre-existing conditions), and potential interactions with other drugs. The entries also categorize drugs by their therapeutic class (e.g., ACE inhibitors, NSAIDs, antibiotics) and explain their mechanisms of action or the conditions they treat, such as hypertension, inflammation, infections, or specific diseases like Gaucher's disease or various cancers. Additionally, it defines key medical terms related to drug administration and physiological processes.
