I am hoping this book will make a difference on our state survey. I have really put this book to the test.
This handbook is extremely handy for the practitioner that needs a quick, very complete reference to medications. received notification of shipment I believe the same day that I placed the order.
Again, the Handbook is a well-organized drug reference that I rely on. I have purchased a new copy (or two) of the Drug Information Handbook every year for at least 10 years.
This book serves my needs very well. I work in both the hospital and the retail pharmacy environment. This reference book is easy to use, very comprehensive, and a bonus section in the back of the book.treatment guidelines and algorithms. You may need many other references to complete the information contained in the Lexi-Comp Drug Information Handbook.
The drug monographs are pretty good, but it is not well-referenced. It is a little larger than pocket size, but is just small enough to fit in the pocket of a white coat. This is a good place to start, but one should definitely verify the info. This is a good handbook to have with you for on-the-go look-up of drug information (i.e. on rounds).
