The introduction of non-medical prescribing has meant that nurses, pharmacists and the professions allied to health are frequently faced with prescribing decisions. This text provides easily accessible information upon which to base these decisions when prescribing for patients with dermatological conditions ensuring safe and effective prescribing practices. Each chapter looks at a common skin disorder (including acne vulgaris and rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, urticaria and angio-oedema, infections and infestations, and skin cancer) and provides information on assessment, differential diagnosis, management strategies and prescribing. Key background information from the relevant life sciences (anatomy, physiology and pharmacology), as applied to clinical practice, is also provided. This book provides an invaluable guide for those healthcare professionals prescribing for, and treating, patients with dermatological conditions.
Creating meals that tasted good while adhering to a low-cholesterol, low-saturated-fat, medically approved diet for a heart patient inspired a comprehensive collection of recipes, some unique and original, some adapted from traditional fare. The emphasis is on the use of polyunsaturated oils, buttermilk, no eggs, and no cheese (except Sap Sago and cottage). Hints for stocking the larder provide guidance in finding the right groceries. Background information covers the relationship of diet to heart disease. Other topics include menu planning, recipe conversion, reference tables for fat and cholesterol content of foods, definition of terms, and suggestions on cooking methods.
