Those that know what this book is probably aren't going to need a review on it. Those that don't know what it is, probably don't need the book.

This was actually a purchase for my wife, who does medical transcription. She had been working for the past several years with the 2004 edition, and had so many notes written in the margins of the book with new medications that were not in available at the time of the 2004 publication that I went out and found her the latest version. So far, every drug she had written in the margins of her old copy are already in the new one.

For as fast as the pharmaceutical industry cranks out new drugs, it is key for there to be an updated publication like this that gives reference information, common dosages, and prescribed uses for those that are in the MT and other medical related fields.

I use this for my job, and I have no choice but to purchase a copy frequently. It is kept up to date and I constantly reference it throughout the day while working. The $36 spent is recouped over and over again within the year just in time saved researching drugs if I did not own this book and spelling accuracy.

I am a home-based medical transcriptionist/editor and this word book is an excellent tool for checking the spelling of prescription medications.

It's a good product at a fair price. The shipping was a little pokey, but that's okay. There was no rush. Thanks for your service.

Saunders has the best pharmaceutical word books and this one arrived quickly and is like new for cheaper than the new ones. Who could go wrong?

While you cant account for anything new added after 09, I still think this book and books like them are an invaluable resource for MT's like myself. Would buya and recommend.

There are other drug books out there, but as a medical transcriptionist, I have always found this one the most user friendly and will continue to purchase updates as they come out.

This book is in excellent shape. The delivery was fast and I am sure I will use it for many years to come.

This book is vital to the needs for a medical transcriptionist, whether a student or employed. It is virtually impossible to remember which drug names are capitalized, hyphenated, etc.

Tremendous resource and highly recommended.
