5 out of 5 stars A drug book that's easy to digest.   August 12, 2009

As a healthcare worker who works in a hospital, I see this book (and its various editions) on just about every floor- whether it be the cardiac floor, neurology floor, or the orthopedic floor. The point is that the scope of this book is so large and complete, that it will be a handy reference to everybody who treats patients, no matter what the diagnosis. So if you're looking for a small, complete drug reference- this is your book. Also recommend "The Sixty-Second Motivator" for tips on how to increase patient compliancy with taking meds.

As a retired nurse I buy one of these every 5 years to have a recent resource on hand. It is simple, direct and gives the necessary information for administration, dosage and side effects. The online resource is handy.

This is one of the best of all the drug books available...simple to use, straightforward with all information needed on dosage, side effects, drug interactions, etc. I would not be without it, believe me! And, best of all, Amazon had it at a great price!
