Focus on 2004: A year of novel pharmacologic agents in review

In each issue, the Focus On article reviews a newly approved or investigational drug of interest to pharmacy and therapeutics committee members. Because so many readers have told the editors of Formulary that they reference this column frequently when making formulary decisions for their hospitals, health-systems, or managed-care organizations, the editors have compiled this review of all the Focus On articles published in 2004, along with updates on the status of each agent.
