I bought this as a gift for my wife who is a nurse. She said that several of her coworkers have this at work to use as a personal reference when the hospital supplied copy is unavailable. She loved it and takes it with her daily. We haven't tried the web toolkit yet so we can't give it a fair rating. For us this was a good purchase.

I work in a crisis department as a Social Worker. We often times have people come in with physical health medication on top of the mental health medication. This book has been very helpful in identifing what they are taking, what it is for, and if it could be related to the issues they are having. Our nursing department has this book in almost every office and they use is all the time. It is a great tool for the medical and non medical staff.

It is a very useful book for everyday practice in Nursing. It allows nurses to have updated information in a rapidly growing area (web toolkit). The scope of the book trascends borders and it is a valuable tool for profesionals working outside the U.S.

This book came in before it was suppose to. I am also a nursing student and use this book often. It gives you a lot of great information on the medications you will need to look up for clinical and has it in a simple format, where everything is easy to look up and locate in a short amount of time. I love this book.

The 2009 Nursing Drug Handbook has great, updated information on all new and old drugs. Easy to read and understand, whether you're a nurse, or just a patient helping manage your own health.
Great, easy to read index in the back, and great toolbar in the front, making it even easier to understand each medication. (Review Data Last Updated: 2009-02-07 02:12:04 EST)

Well trusted product...have used these drug references over 18years and finally decided I'll never win the free book, don't want to pay the $52 the company wants with shipping and handling, so Amazon is a winner! Book is new condition, like I'd expect from the company.

The information in the book was very well organize and easy to review. The book it self was not well put together. The first time I opened the book the binding broke leaving the liklihood that the pages will fall out and be lost.

this is the most informative, easiest to understand, drug book on the market. drug names are easily found and the information is exactly what is needed--also lists the most common side effects to watch for.

As a healthcare worker who works in a hospital, I see this book (and its various editions) on just about every floor- whether it be the cardiac floor, neurology floor, or the orthopedic floor. The point is that the scope of this book is so large and complete, that it will be a handy reference to everybody who treats patients, no matter what the diagnosis. So if you're looking for a small, complete drug reference- this is your book. Also recommend The Sixty-Second Motivator for tips on how to increase patient compliancy with taking meds.

I have carried this book since I became a Nurse in 1995. I update every other year and it is A MUST HAVE for Nurses. A wise investment.

I am a med student and find this book very user friendly especially when just getting into pharm. I haven't had a great amount of use with it yet, but it is wonderful in the clinic when you need to look up side effects quickly.

I work at a medical facility and new laws say there needs to be a drug reference book available for the nurses. The price was perfect & I recommended this book be bought by all our facilites to be in compliance. The book was very current & had many illistations of pills & medications. I will buy the 2009 book when it comes out for our office.
