Pharmacoepidemiology originally arose from the union of the fields of clinical pharmacology and epidemiology. Pharmacoepidemiology studies the use of and the effects of medical products in large numbers of people and applies the methods of epidemiology to the content area of clinical pharmacology. This field represents the science underlying studies of the effects of medical products (such as drugs, biologicals, and devices) in real world use.Strom's Textbook of Pharmacoepidemiology meets the increasing need for people to be trained in the field. Designed to meet the need of students, this textbook offers an approach that focuses on the core of the discipline, providing a focused educational resource for students. The book is designed for students at all levels: upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and others who are learning the field. Case examples feature in most chapters, and all chapters include key points and a list of further reading.Fully revised and updated throughout, Textbook of Pharmacoepidemiology, 3rd edition is a useful introduction and resource for students of pharmacoepidemiology, both those enrolled in formal classes and those learning in "the real world," who will respond to the challenges that they encounter.
