Prescribing in palliative care can be extremely complex because the patient may often have comorbidity, or occasionally multimorbidity.

This can be daunting for healthcare professionals and can negatively impact upon the effectiveness of care provided. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Fully revised and updated, the third edition of \u003cem\u003eDrugs in Palliative Care\u003c\/em\u003e provides an accessible and succinct overview of the main drugs that are encountered in palliative care clinical practice.
