Love this book! I have several other drug guide books and this one is my favorite. It explains just a little more info for each drug because it is for nursing students. I wish my professors would have recommended this book in the beginning of nursing school.

It's a very user - friendly medication reference manual with color - coded sections, pics of medications, and thorough/brief descriptions of listed medications. Also, the appendix houses helpful clinical information such as immunization procedures, assessment techniques, etc.

I tried my first year of nursing school with the online version of this book, and I'm SO happy to have this print version now to take with me to clinicals. Thank you! Fast shipping and couldn't find a better price for this condition anywhere.

BEST book ever! As a nursing student with a class full of future nurses; I feel that I have found THE BOOK. It's easy to read and use. Third drug book I bought, but so worth it!

Love this book, it helped me so much when I was doing my nursing care plans first semester. Hopefully it helps me out just as much second semester with Pharm!

I really like how this book is laid out. It's very easy to find what you're looking for with the different colors

Nice book, fast shipping. Will definitely look for this company when buying books for the next few years!!

Best purchase every. Well worth the money. Got to me right away with no problems.
