Twenty-two American academics and researchers contribute 22 chapters providing guidelines for toxicologists, pathologists, and laboratory scientists regarding the application of chromatographic techniques for therapeutic drug monitoring of both classical and newer drugs. For classical drugs for which immunoassays are readily available, clinical situations are presented where immunoassay results may be compromised and more sophisticated techniques are needed for therapeutic drug monitoring. Coverage includes pre-analytical variables, the pitfalls of immunoassays, tandem mass spectrometry, issues concerning pain management and herbal supplements, and therapeutic drug monitoring for a range of medications: anticonvulsants, digitalis, cardioactive drugs, antidepressants, immunosuppressants, anti-cancer drugs, vancomycin and aminoglycosides, antibiotics, antiretroviral drugs, non-narcotic analgesics, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Each chapter ends with an extensive list of references so that individuals interested in implementing a new drug assay in their laboratories can find an appropriate method for the intended drug.
