  • Deprescribing and Polypharmacy in an Aging Population

    • 1st Edition
    • Ali Elbeddini
    • English
    Deprescribing and Polypharmacy in an Aging Population supports healthcare professionals across global healthcare institutions in reducing polypharmacy-related drug replated problems (DRPs) by working with patients, families, interprofessional healthcare professionals, and educational institutions to develop, implement, test, improve upon, and educate on strategies for deprescribing and optimizing patient safety. Polypharmacy, the use of multiple medications at the same time by one person, is very common in various patient populations, including those who lack primary physicians, patients with mental health conditions, patients with multiple chronic conditions, and in the aging population.

  • Nucleic Acids

    A Natural Target for Newly Designed Metal Chelate Based Drugs
    • 1st Edition
    • Irshad Ul Haq Bhat + 1 more
    • English
    Nucleic Acids: A Natural Target for Newly Designed Metal Chelate Based Drugs discusses how human diseases are becoming more costly to treat, along with updates on the resistance offered by disease-causing agents. The abundance of drugs in the market has provided great relief to patients, but side effects can destroy the immune system of the body. Patients need to boost their immune system, and at the same time cover expenses incurred to cure disease. Thus, a paradigm shift is needed to design a drug molecule with low cost and easy availability. Metal complexes can be a great example of such a shift, as metal ions are components of biological molecules and can achieve good binding capability to specific targets while not allowing them to damage healthy cell system. Therefore, in this book, a comprehensive compilation of recent data is provided, including the structural elucidation of metal complexes by advanced techniques and the binding pattern of metal complexes with specific targets.
