This book covers various aspects of a respiratory system disorder
associated with prescribed drugs that do not yet have established
treatment guidelines, and for which the only treatment is to
discontinue taking the drug. Very little clinical evidence
regarding the disorder is available, since randomized trials cannot
to be carried out, the onset of the disorder cannot be predicted,
and the resulting pathological condition is life-threatening.
However, the need for an established treatment continues to grow
due to the introduction of many new drugs, such as anti-neoplastic
drugs, biological products, and molecular target drugs, the adverse
effects of which are difficult to differentiate from those of other
lung diseases, such as lung infectious diseases.

Drug-Induced Lung Injury offers a highly beneficial resource
not only for respiratory physicians but also all medical clinicians
who prescribe drugs, nurses, pharmacists and pharmaceutical
scientists. Written by pioneering experts in the field, the book
examines a wealth of cases and the insights they yield concerning
the diagnosis, treatment and specific drugs causing the disease. It
not only fosters a deeper understanding of the disorder but also
highlights the current challenges and paves the way for future
clinical research.
