The Complete Guide to Prescription & Nonprescription Drugs is a highly useful family reference that includes the latest FDA approvals. It's not as comprehensive as the PDR, but then, it's also that much more cogent and user-friendly. Each listing features dosage and usage information, actions in the body, generic equivalents, potential adverse interactions (including those with foods and other drugs), overdose symptoms, precautions, side- effects from prolonged use, and guidelines for usage in pregnant, breast-feeding, and elderly people.
