This review is from: The Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy (Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy (Sanford)) (Paperback)

I work as a hospitalist in a busy community hospital. I use a commercial software product as a quick reference for other meds, but still stick with this classic reference for antibiotics and sensitivities. Small and lightweight, it doesn't take up much room in your pocket. Med students and residents in particular shouldn't leave home without it!

This review is from: The Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy (Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy (Sanford)) (Paperback)

I bought this book upon starting my residency and i have to say that i found it to be very useful. It covers all the infectious diseases, even those we might never see in our practice. the best part tough is that it includes empiric treatment guidelines, 2nd 3rd or even 4th line antimicrobial agents for every infection. This way it can solve the problem with patients being allergic to specific antibiotics, that many times are the mainstay in treating infectious diseases. I think this book can't serve its purpose any better than it does

Have relied on this annual review for over 25 years. Nothing else comes close to being as reliable, current, thorough and useful.
