The ambulance service I work for keeps this particular guide on board all its 'rigs.' Granted, referencing information takes a bit of practice. That aside, it's been invaluable to me as a paramedic. In particular the segments on overdose symptoms & treatment thereof. It's also come in handy when patients list prescriptions with which I'm not completely familiar. I personally prefer this reference to the Nurses' Drug Handbook or Mosby's Paramedic Drug Guide.
Good complete information, easy to use and well organized. As a paramedic this book is very useful. I would like to see the authors add more information on paralytics.
Excellent updated information, easy to handle, easy to look up using the index. A must for the internal medicine specialist or resident
Great book, highly recommended
Soft cover book drug handbook made for physician's? I think not. I'm a nurse and no doctor would look through this book for drug info. It's too difficult to find out the info you need, it is not easily indexed. Once you find it though it's very good and it has most drugs you would need to find on a Med-Surg unit. Please format it better for easy use!!
