  • 353 Accesses

Abstract

Clinically relevant drug interactions leading to toxicity are discussed with emphasis on the mechanism of action and clinical implications. No attempts are made to cover the whole field of drug interactions. Instead, the problems are illustrated by examples of pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic interactions described in the literature of veterinary and human medicine.
