Reviews for Community Pharmacy: Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment

'A must have book, essential for pre-registration pharmacists, MPharm students and pharmacists. Has clear pictures to help recognise illnesses patients may represent with in the community, with referral criteria set out clearly (and differential diagnoses), as well as information about treatment options. Another beauty is that it summarises treatment options for each diagnosis, whether it can be used in children etc, likely side effects, notable drug interactions, which patient groups it is cautioned in and whether suitable in pregnancy/breastfeeding. Excellent summaries, referenced and also includes brand names of products to recommend!' 'Great book for pharmacists in community pharmacy! Pictures of skin diseases are very useful as well. It is a must for pre-reg students or even pharmacy students as OTC modules are covered in the MPharm course too.' 'Essential for any student on the MPharm programme and pre-reg pharmacists. Covers most conditions commonly encountered in community pharmacy and also differential diagnosis.' 'Lots of photos, nice colours to emphasise different topics, easy written and user-friendly book.' 'Everyone (who works in a community pharmacy setting) could benefit from having this book in their lives!' 'Good quality and definitely helpful for third year pharmacy students! helps with exam revison as at the end of every section there are activities to complete.' 'I'm a pre-reg pharmacist and this book is amazing for covering all OTC meds and really explains how to diagnoses conditions. Would highly recommend.'
