Tóm tắt
Medical toxicology is a specialized field that deals with the diagnosis, management, and prevention of poisoning and other harmful effects caused by drugs, cosmetics, environmental and occupational toxicants, and biological agents. It addresses issues such as drug overdoses, substance abuse, envenomation, industrial accidents, and adverse drug reactions. The book emphasizes the global public health challenge of poisonings and the urgent need for safe and effective antidotes, given that many existing antidotes have a low therapeutic index. Topics include drug and venom poisonings, drug–herb interactions, antidotes, antidote networks, forensic toxicology, and substance abuse.
