Formatted for quick reference and written in nontechnical language, the handbook features an extensive master index (from AZT to Zantac, as well as the most recent and experimental drugs). The drug descriptions are categorized by their specific uses in treating the wide spectrum of HIV/AIDS related symptoms and illnesses.
Features include:
- drugs listed by brand, trade, generic, popular, scientific, experimental, and code names
-drugs grouped by types of treatment, like antiviral, antibiotic, anticancer, antifungal, immune-based, psychoactive and much more
-the latest experimental therapies for each category
-drug side effects, glossary of terms, color photos, and essential information on treatment, dietary and vitamin supplements, assistance and government programs, hotline numbers and specialized children treatments.
The HIV DRUG BOOK is written expressively for people with HIV/AIDS, their caregivers, friends and family, and will be invaluable for physicians who must struggle with the overwhelming demands of this rapidly changing field.
