Customer Reviews: Helpful and great size. October 16, 2009 C. O'Brien (Atlanta GA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Thought obviously not like having a traditional nurses drug guide...this handy pocket size guide fits in my scrub pocket for quick reference to common drugs. Still stuck if you need to look up something unusual. Such is life anyway.
2010...sure isn't updated...disappointed September 26, 2009 Janet Hurguy (Onalaska, WI USA) 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I have bought different medical drug books but was not happy because they did not have all the meds I wanted to look up. Well, I will have to keep looking for that book because this one, for being printed for most recent updates, sure isn't up to date! I was just prescribed a newer medication but it is not in this book...I found out it is in my 1990 book! Makes no sense. If I'd known this, I would not have bought this book.
