"Drugs for Bugs" is a guide to outpatient antimicrobial therapy and is to be used by physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners and all students. It allows the clinician to quickly look up appropriate antibiotic therapy for the most common diseases that occur in the outpatient setting. The first section of the guide is presented in a head-to-toe fashion, with head and scalp diseases listed first and then ears, nose, throat, chest and so of. In the second section, information is listed on each antibiotic. The goal is to give the clinician a quick reference guide to help treat common outpatient infections. "Drugs for Bugs" is also available electronically for hand-held computers.

Quick, easy and you can actually read the print.,

This review is from: Drugs for Bugs 2003: The Saint-Frances Guide to Outpatient Antimicrobial Therapy (Paperback)
A fellow medical student showed me this pocket book and I am glad I bought it. It is very easy to use and the print is readable. The best part of this book is the list of dosing for Peds. I don't have to look up the amount based on the kg of the child; its right there. Highly recommend for those of us who work or do clinical rotations in the out-patient setting.

WOW! From Head to Toe, the way to go!!!,

This review is from: Drugs for Bugs 2003: The Saint-Frances Guide to Outpatient Antimicrobial Therapy (Paperback)
This is an amazingly useful and easy to use book! Unlike most other antibiotic guides this one gives you all the information you need when a patient with an infection is in front of you in the office. Not only the drug of choice, but useful alternative therapies, dosages (adults and children), common adverse effects and other helpful prescribing information. And it's so easy to find the infection you're looking for- since the book is arranged from anatomical top (HEENT)in the front to bottom (GU) in the back. There's a separate section for antimicrobials in addition to the one for the disease syndromes. The book fits perfectly into a lab coat (or shirt) pocket and is up to date and highly accurate. The best antibiotic guide I've seen.
