Neonatal Formulary provides comprehensive guidance on the safe use of the drugs prescribed for neonates. It also provides guidance on safe use of maternal medications during pregnancy, labour, delivery, and during lactation. As well as many drugs encountered during the first year of an infant's life.
Part 1 focuses on drug storage, licensing, and prescribing. It also explains why neonatal drug metabolism differs from other age groups.
Patient safety initiatives, excipients, and therapies that affect drug metabolism are also covered.
Part 2 covers over 250 drugs, vaccines, breast milk fortifiers, and specialist formula
milks used in neonatal care. This new edition contains several new drugs and vaccines. Each chapter has been extensively reviewed and updated with new information that has come to light, such as using smaller syringes for infusions of short half-life drugs and nationally agreed standardised concentrations for infusions.
Part 3 discusses over 700 additional drugs and groups of drugs that mothers might be prescribed during pregnancy, labour and delivery, or during
breastfeeding, and how these might impact on the fetus or infant.
On-line supplemental information is provided for medications that are no longer in common use as well as more in depth
discussions about many of the commoner drugs still in use.
Containing far more detail than is available in the British National Formulary for Children, and with additional online material, Neonatal Formulary is an essential guide for neonatologists, paediatricians, neonatal nurses, hospital pharmacists, obstetric staff, and all health care professionals caring for pregnant women and their infants.
