Pharmacology for Physiotherapy Students, 4/E | Thoroughly Revised BPT Textbook with Flowcharts, Compare & Contrast Tables and Mnemonics for Musculoskeletal & Drug Therapy Topics

Pharmacology for Physiotherapy Students, 4th Edition is the thoroughly revised and updated edition of this established BPT pharmacology textbook, rebuilt around the latest revised syllabus. Known for its simplicity and clarity, the book adds more flowcharts and diagrams to explain every important mechanism of action, and its text revisions draw on inputs from super-specialists and subject experts. The book spans 12 chapters covering general pharmacology, the autonomic nervous system, drugs acting on the musculoskeletal system, anti-inflammatory drugs and immunopharmacology, cardiovascular pharmacology, the central nervous system, and chemotherapy, structured in a student-friendly format with bold key-term callouts and boxed drug-interaction and adverse-reaction lists throughout. Who This Book Is For: BPT / Physiotherapy Students: a core pharmacology textbook built around the BPT syllabus, covering drug groups directly relevant to physiotherapy practice such as musculoskeletal agents, NSAIDs, and drugs used alongside exercise-based treatment. Why This Book Helps: Bridges pharmacology and physiotherapy practice: keeps the drug groups physiotherapists actually work around front and center, rather than teaching pharmacology from a purely medical lens. Simplifies complex mechanisms: flowcharts and diagrams break down the mechanism of action for every major drug class, including skeletal muscle relaxants and neuromuscular blockers. Speeds up revision and recall: a dedicated compare-and-contrast series sets related drug groups side by side for quick recall, and mnemonics are included throughout to aid memorization. Keeps content current: matter is thoroughly revised and reorganized to match the latest syllabus, with text checked against super-specialist and subject-expert input. Key Features: 12 chapters spanning general pharmacology through chemotherapy, matching the latest BPT syllabus Flowcharts and diagrams explaining the mechanism of action for major drug classes, including classification of skeletal muscle relaxants and the mechanism of succinylcholine Comparative duration-of-action tables, including a table comparing competitive neuromuscular blockers, as part of a dedicated compare-and-contrast series Mnemonics included throughout to help memorize drug classifications and actions Coverage of physiotherapy-relevant clinical scenarios including myasthenia gravis, osteoarthritis management, and drugs and exercise
