5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, June 19, 2000

This review is from: Quick Look Drug Book, 2000 (Paperback)

As a Medical Transcriptionist I find this book to be an invaluable tool. I use this book not only to find the correct spelling of the drugs but also to find drug usages, doseages, generics, and brand names. I especially like the indication/therapeutic category index. Many times it is difficult to determine exactly what a physician is dictating. I can go to the back, find the illness being treated, and most of the time locate the drug that the doctor has dictated. This book is very comprehensive, up-to-date, and very easy to use. It is the book that I refer to most.

As a Medical Transcriptionist this book is an invaluable resource. I have used it not only to look up the correct spelling of drugs but also to cross reference doseages, generics, and usages. I especially like the indication/therapeutic category index. Many times it is difficult to understand what the physicians dictate, it is helpful to be able to go to the back to see if the drug I think that they have said matches the diagnosis. I highly recommend this book.
