Publisher's Synopsis
Updated annually, "Pharmacy Law Digest" provides a general overview of the legal system as it affects the practice of pharmacy. It addresses US federal laws regulating controlled substances, constitutional considerations in dealing with governmental inspections, regulation of pharmaceuticals, civil liability and business law. The text also includes a condensed review of actual civil and criminal cases involving the practice of pharmacy as well as reprints of the survey of pharmacy law. The digest has been recently reformatted from a looseleaf into a bound textbook version to integrate practical professional guidelines and enhanced study techniques. Study questions are at the end of some chapters, incorporating critical thinking, research opportunities and collaborative learning strategies.
