This handy paharmacology quick reference book can be carried in your pocket, and you can easily locate the meds you seek, their class and dosing information faster than powering up and scrolling through a PDA.

As a 3rd year medical student, I needed something with more information other than dosages. This book is probably good for interns who are already familiar with all aspects of the drugs.

I found this pockect book really helpful during my clinical courses. It 's easy to use. It contains the most prescripted drugs and that 's a very nice reason for a student to have it.

This is a great pocket reference for the busy physician. The best thing is that doesn't break when you drop it----like my PDA.

*****
I purchase each new Tarascon addition for my husband, who is a solo practitioner and specialist. He carries it with him in the pocket of his scrubs and uses it daily with almost every patient for accuracy in dosing. He says that it is much easier to use for dosing than the PDR, much more convenient and quicker. He finds it much easier to use than any other source. The print size, which looks to be smaller, is however not too small for him. I usually buy three at a time because that is how many he'll use up in a year due to wear-and-tear and misplacement, and then use the old ones from previous years for collage because of the beautiful thin-but-strong onion-skin type paper. ***** (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-01-23 01:32:39 EST)

It is what it is. Not too many new things are in the updated 2008 version versus the older editions. However, it still is thee book to have, although I may purchase the larger version next time.

I've carried this in my pocket every shift since my very first preceptor gave it to me. It's absolutely indispenable. And now that I precept new nurses into a neurosurgical critical care unit, this is what they get from me on their first day. :)
