Covers principles of pharmacology and drug therapy, including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and medication safety.

Lehne’s Pharmacology for Nursing Care (10th ed., 2019) delivers a clear, evidence-based introduction to pharmacology tailored specifically for nursing practice. It emphasizes understanding drug mechanisms, therapeutic uses, and safe administration rather than rote memorization. The text integrates the nursing process, highlighting clinical reasoning, patient education, and adverse effect management. It provides comprehensive coverage of drug classes across all body systems, with strong focus on safety alerts, patient-centered care, and current clinical guidelines. Designed for both students and practicing nurses, it bridges pharmacologic science with real-world nursing decision-making in diverse clinical settings.
