Critics Review

‘The book is organized so that any topic can be referenced easily and individual chapters are structured so that information is provided in a logical and clear format. This is a useful reference for pharmacists working with renally impaired patients. It outlines some of the major challenges encountered in clinical practice when treating these patients. The chapters are organized nicely with topic headings and tables highlighting key concepts, and succeeds in capturing clinically pertinent topics in renal medicine today.’Melissa M. Ranieri, BS, PharmD (Temple University School of Pharmacy) Doody Enterprises, Inc. March 2008

‘The text offers a good overview of the issues pertinent to chronic kidney disease. Introduction to Renal Therapeutics provides a broad overview of the diseases and complications commonly associated with chronic kidney diseases and will be of interest to pharmacists and pharmacy students not familiar with nephrology.’Marianna Leung, BSc Pharm, PharmD CHJP Vol. 61, No. 4 July- August 2008

‘This book will be of value to anyone interested in expanding his or her knowledge about drug therapy for the renally impaired patient. The devotion of separate chapters to complications such as renal bone disease encourages the reader to fully explore the nuances of these conditions and their drug therapy.’Hillary Wall Grillo PharmD, The Annals of Pharmacotherapy Volume 42 July/ August 2008
