I never leave home without this book. I would have given it 5 stars but I noticed this edition lacks the plastic cover which I was accustomed to with my '08 edition. I feel the cover is essential to keeping the book protected all year long.

Best pocket reference available, PDAs are great but they can be slower when looking for an immediate answer. I highly recommend this product to everyone.

AS always Tarascon delivers a good book, BUT this year the list words in the back are smaller and harder for me to read! Either the type of font/font size was changed or something, but as much as I like it I may have to revert back to my older edition! I bought the Lab-Coat Edition specifically because I knew the font would be larger than the pocket edition I first got. I am disappointed this year but will continue to use it.

I've had older versions of these for many years- always very compact and fit into lab coat easily. Yes, this one will fit into your lab coat but it is more the size of a Sanford antimicrobial guide than the usual pharmacopoeia that I'm used to.

Deluxe lab-coat editions usually come with a plastic book cover protector. No protector this time. Otherwise, book was in excellent condition.

It is a good reference but don't expect to get a mechanism of action or details on how it effects the body.

I'm a PA and I reference this book everyday! Perfect for checking dosages...definitely recommend for all medical professionals!

I was very shocked when I received this larger book. Some of my classmates had the pocket version and I thought that's what I was getting but I was very happy when this came. It has a little more information in it than the smaller version and I got it for the same price as I would've paid for the smaller version. Very satisfied!

I have used this book all throughout residency and now in private practice. It is an excellent reference. I rely on it to give me up-to-date drug information for treatment of my patients.

it's a great reference for work. the only problem was that there was some slight damage when i received it.... there was a "hole" on the back cover that also affected some of the back pages, probably from shipping cause there was some damage on the packaging material also. but not so much that it affected usage. i just didn't like damage on my new reference tool.
