Pediatric Drug Doses

by GL Chattri

This book is designed to be a practical and convenient guide to the dosing and usage of medications in children. Pediatric doses vary with the age, weight, surface area and disease, etc. Over dosing may lead to side effects and under dosing will lead to unsatisfactory response or development of resistance in cases of antibiotics. This book is not meant to be an alternative to time-tested exhaustive textbooks on drug doses, but meant to be a concise companion for all health professionals dealing with pediatric population on day-to-day basis because it is humanly not possible to remember the wide range of medications currently used in pediatrics. This book consists of 47 chapters. In this edition, existing drugs are updated and expanded, a few drugs are omitted, and many more drugs and useful tables are added. It is a concise and useful guide on all the aspects of care related to pediatric drug dosing.
