Nevertheless, there are some instances when nothing other than the timely use of a specific antidote is an essential lifesaving intervention. For this reason, and also because the use of such strategies are often problematic, controversial, or unfamiliar to the practitioner as new therapeutic approaches continue to emerge and old standards are reevaluated, we have included a section (or sections) at the end of appropriate chapters in which an in-depth discussion of such material is relevant.
