This work is no substitute for individual patient assessment based upon healthcare professionals’ examination of each patient
and consideration of, among other things, age, weight, gender, current or prior medical conditions, medication history,
laboratory data and other factors unique to the patient. The publisher does not provide medical advice or guidance and this

Given continuous, rapid advances in medical science and health information, independent professional verification of
medical diagnoses, indications, appropriate pharmaceutical selections and dosages, and treatment options should be made
and healthcare professionals should consult a variety of sources. When prescribing medication, healthcare professionals are
advised to consult the product information sheet (the manufacturer’s package insert) accompanying each drug to verify,
among other things, conditions of use, warnings and side effects and identify any changes in dosage schedule or
contraindications, particularly if the medication to be administered is new, infrequently used or has a narrow therapeutic
range. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, no responsibility is assumed by the publisher for any injury
