Special emphasis is placed on signs and symptoms of diseases and pathology caused by toxins and clinical drugs. Includes the source, pharmacological and toxicological mechanism of action, detection and identification in body fluids, and treatment of exposure. An overview of protocols for managing various toxic ingestions, and the antidotes and treatments associated with their pathology, are discussed.
