Very helpful reference for nurses who administer medication as well as others who need a quick reference to understanding medications. Much smaller and handier to use than a PDR. Great resource for Home Health nurses to keep in the car. Has the action, uses, dosage/routes, side effects, contraindications, precautions, pharmacokinetics and nursing considerations in a clear and consise format. Medications are listed alphabetically but also have the generic name, pronunciation, functional class and chemical class listed beneath. Colored pictures are found in the center of the book as a visual reference to some of the pills. These are just some of the features, but there are many more. I make sure that I order a new one each year!

I am an LPN student and had to do over 200 drug cards for class. I found most of my drugs in this book but had to look in my Davis book also to find the rest. I looked on line to find the combonation drugs. Hope this helps someone.
