About the Book

Completely updated and revised, Nelson’s Neonatal Antimicrobial Therapy, Second Edition, provides the most current, practical, and evidence-based recommendations for health care professionals treating neonates. Developed by leading experts in antimicrobial therapy, this resource aims to help clinicians select the right drug, dose, and duration for the treatment of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections in neonates.

Neonatal infectious disease therapeutics research continues to expand and respond to emerging novel pathogens and bacterial resistance. The recommendations in this book are based on the best available evidence to provide those taking care of neonates with the best possible treatment decisions, with updated guidance on dosing for low-birth-weight newborns, drug monographs for commonly prescribed drugs, and antimicrobial stewardship guidance for the nursery.
