Otra de las novedades a destacar es la especial actualización sufrida en los siguientes campos: toxicología y tratamiento en los procesos de envenenamiento, los fármacos ansiolíticos e hipnótico-sedativos, los fármacos psicoterapéuticos, los opioides, los fármacos para las enfermedades neurodegenerativas y los utilizadas para el tratamiento de las cefaleas.

Pharmacognosy, the science of nature-derived drugs, pharmaceuticals, and poisons, played a crucial role in the development of modern medicine, and now has an equally important place in healthcare all over the world. This wide scope ranges from traditional medicine systems and herbal and nutritional therapies, the preparation and use of highly standardised and clinically tested herbal medicines, to the production of potent drugs used only in a purified form. Natural sources mainly focus on plants, fungi and algae, but drug discovery of novel compounds and structures includes bacteria and even marine animals. Fundamentals of Pharmacognosy and Phytotherapy is a landmark textbook that covers this spectrum of medicinal plant use. Written by leading experts in this field, this book takes the reader through the history, identification, and quality assurance of plant-based medicines to their therapeutic properties, safety, and compatibility and interaction with prescribed drugs. Aimed at students of all healthcare professions, including pharmacy, medicine, nursing and complementary therapies, the comprehensively updated information in this textbook is also relevant to those companies and organisations concerned with the regulation and testing of herbal medicines (phytomedicines), other natural health products, nutraceuticals and dietary supplements.

Selon la définition de l'ANSM, un dispositif médical correspond à tout instrument, appareil, équipement, matière, produit (à l'exception des produits d'origine humaine), y compris accessoire et logiciel, utilisé seul ou en association à des fins médicales chez l'homme, et dont l’action principale voulue n'est pas obtenue par des moyens pharmacologiques, immunologiques ou métaboliques.Pharmacie clinique et dispositifs médicaux, sous l'égide de l’Association nationale des enseignants de pharmacie clinique (ANEPC), détaille ainsi les enjeux des dispositifs médicaux, la réglementation qui les régit, les biomatériaux qui les constituent, l'approche clinique des différents dispositifs selon le type de prise en charge.Livre de référence et outil de travail précieux, cet ouvrage propose une approche par pathologies classées par systèmes, selon un plan précis :L’encadré « points clés » expose l’essentiel du chapitre ;les généralités regroupent la physiopathologie et les dispositifs médicaux utilisés dans la pathologie ;les critères de choix et la stratégie thérapeutique sont développés en fonction de la sévérité de la pathologie, du terrain et des éventuels traitements associés ;l’optimisation thérapeutique concerne les posologies, l’administration (voies d’administration, conseils, incompatibilités), les mises en garde, les précautions d’emploi et la prévention de l’iatropathologie (prévention des risques majeurs et des effets indésirables) ;enfin, un ou plusieurs cas cliniques accompagnés de questions générales permettent d’appliquer les connaissances acquises. Les réponses sont accompagnées de commentaires, reprenant les points importants du chapitre.Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux pharmaciens d'officine et hospitaliers, aux étudiants en pharmacie, aux médecins amenés à prescrire ou à utiliser des dispositifs médicaux, aux personnels de laboratoire ainsi qu’aux industriels les fabriquant.
