About this book

This dictionary defines various terms typically used in pharmaceutical medicine. A new, 4th edition includes adaptations of the text to the steadily increasing regulatory requirements, particularly in the area of genetics/gene therapy, product quality (e.g., protection against falsified medicines) and of product safety (pharmacovigilance). Further evolving areas that are covered by the 4th edition are typical “grey zones” (health effects often borderline to medicinal products) such as cosmetics and dietary supplements where misleading information is prohibited on one hand but where any health claims need formal authorisation on the other. These but also other areas are reviewed and presented in an updated and – if justified – in an enlarged form.


Reviews

“This is a new edition of this book … . There are about 700 new entries which is about a third more than the previous edition. … Clearly this is a useful book and would suit students of pharmacy. It may also be of use to practicing pharmacists as they keep up with changes in their industry.” (John Goodier, Reference Reviews, Vol. 31 (8), 2017)
