    • Summary:This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to the discussion of medications in the rehabilitation process and assists in designing patient-specific therapy plans based on coexisting disease states and medications used. It offers a proactive approach to education patients and caregivers, monitoring patients for side effects, and modifying therapy plans according to the needs of each patient. This resource will help you optimize rehabilitation sessions with appropriately timed and dosed administration of medication; understand the effects of medication on cognition and learning necessary for accomplishing the tasks of rehabilitation; identify medication-associated issues affecting the rehabilitation progress, such as dysphagia and problems with muscle function; and determine appropriate interventions regarding medication use in patients.
