This book contains three sections; small animals, large animals and exotics, with each section being split into drug dosages, antimicrobials/anthelmintics and descriptions of drugs.Each sub-section is alphabetically ordered making it quick and easy to find whatever drug you are looking for, and there is a comprehensive index in the back containing both generic and trade names as well as some diseases and therapies! The down side of this is that the trade names relate to Canada and USA so some of the British drugs aren't listed by trade name. I haven't found this to be too much of a problem, but sometimes it is difficult to find drugs if you only know the trade name.I found the drug dosages sections very useful as not only does it give the dose but also it gives the different doses for different indications and administration routes. I especially liked the exotics section since it gives you detailed information on rodents, rabbits, ferrets, reptiles and birds; subjects on which data is usually difficult to come by.The size of the book makes it very handy to keep in your bag for reference during lectures and it is small enough to fit in your pocket when on clinics.This book provides the usefulness of a formulary and the convenience of dosage charts, all combined into one pocket-sized handbook. It has been a great aid to my studies and I highly recommend it to vet students on either side of the Atlantic.
This drug book is organized extremely well for easy use. You can obtain dosaging information quicker than other veterinary drug books with a convenient formulary in the front of each section. It is nice that the doses are separated for large animal vs small animal. The only drawback of this book lies in the drug descriptions in that they are not complete. The specific drug descriptions will provide a general idea of the drug's uses and major side effects and available sizes, but not some of the more comprehensive information that is sometimes necessary.
I was very satisfied with the purchase I made and how quickly it was received. Everything was exactly how it was described it would be and I will definetly order through here again.
