An Excellent Reference for ParamedicsJuly 31, 1999 20 out of 20 found this review helpful
I am an Instructor of initial Paramedic programs for East Carolina University in Greenville North Carolina. This is the best reference that I have found. This text contains information not found in many similar references such as the half life of a drug and duration of onset. This information is of particular interest to the Paramedic. The individual drugs are easy to locate and the language is precise and free of the useless clutter found in many drug references.
a valuable guide for nursesJune 6, 1999 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
this book has proven itself to be invaluable in my practice. the only shortcoming is that it does not contain all drugs that you may encounter in the hospital. and that is not the fault of the publisher, new drugs are being added at such a fast rate that you just cant keep up. Im looking forward to the 7th ed.
A great Nursing Process tool. Larger book is a plus!December 20, 1998 curtchow@tco.net(Cottonwood, Ca) 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
The Davis's Drug Guide offer up-to-date info similar to other drug guides but the advantage is the larger but thinner book. This allows you to have the page open while writing up information. Other drug guides are nice and compact but are difficult to keep open on their own. The information needed by nurses is spelled out plainly with important information marked with bold or italic text.
I like the fact that this book includes IV administration .August 24, 1998 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
As a nurse I choose Davis' Drug Guide because it has all the information I am looking for. I especially like the fact that it includes IV administration information and I don't need to buy another book with that information in it. This is the 3rd edition I have purchased.
