Although Humour is used in this book to highlight toxic drugs & their
typical signs & symptoms, diagnostic findings, mechanism of action,
contraindications & complications in toxicological emergencies due to
drugs & medications, it is not our intent to laugh at people suffering
from drug toxicity. Because we know that a good laugh eases tension,
increases creativity, we will do almost anything to get the reader
rolling with laughter, word inflections, exaggerated facial expressions
and drawings, hilarious personal stories about most toxic drugs (of
which we have way too many), ridiculous examples and we encourage our
students to do the same. On the contrary, we hope that reading this book
with comic pictures about drug related toxicity, will enable you to help
& remember about typical toxic symptoms in easier way by funny images
with comic like stories in each case of overdose, and its related
complications. Drugs safety & toxicity profile of all the scheduled
drugs have been described in humorous manner as told in cartoon comics
in our childhood days, to keep the reader interested in going through
each drug related toxicological emergencies, using comic book
superheroes & villains
