Classification of Drugs Why do I need to know different drug classifications? Helpful when reviewing a patient’s drug history Gives knowledge of patients requiring premedication Useful in dental procedures requiring different types of pain control Assistance in a medical emergency Copyright © 2009, 2006 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.
