Small Animal Toxicology Essentials
A one-stop reference for veterinary clinicians in small animal practices
Veterinary technicians play a vital role in the successful operation of any small animal practice. One of the most important types of cases they will face is an emergency call related to a possibly toxic exposure, which demands that they assess clinical urgency, triage calls, offer guidelines for the collection of diagnostic samples, and more.
Small Animal Toxicology Essentials offers a foundational, practical guide to the most common small animal toxins, their poisoning risks, and the essential steps required to evaluate client calls and provide timely, effective assistance. Fully updated to reflect the latest research and expand treatment of key subjects, this is the must-own reference for clinical professionals.
Readers of the second edition of Small Animal Toxicology Essentials will also find:
- Updated treatment of all common toxins
- Detailed discussion of topics including differential diagnoses, clinical signs, laboratory sample collection, and many more
- Additional colour photographs and tables to facilitate toxin identification
Small Animal Toxicology Essentials is ideal for veterinary technicians and veterinary technician students, for those working in small animal or emergency practice, no matter the length of employment.
