Summary: Not really very quick at all......
Comment: Your opinion of this book may vary widely from mine, but I come from the perspective of a medical transcriptionist. I need to know how to spell a medication, its generic name, available strengths, manufacturer, and very little else. For my purposes this book is laid out poorly, primarily because when I look for a name brand drug it gives no information but directs me to the generic entry, which is where the other info is found. This is very, very far from being a "quick look," as I basically have to look up a drug twice to find the info I usually need. QLDB also makes the mistake of separating herbal remedies from pharmaceuticals, which is unhelpful. For the MT, Saunders' Pharmaceutical is a far, far better resource.
Having said that, QLDB does provide tons of info for other health professionals or laypersons that could be of benefit to them. Even to the MT there are some nice appendices here, such as cross-referencing lists that give the medications by indication (lists of drugs approved for nausea, hypokalemia, etc.), lists of drugs no longer manufactured (although Saunders' method of including these in the main list, with a "discontinued" notation, is preferable), and a list of chemo regimens. Not unusable by any stretch of the imagination, but for the MT this is clearly not a quick look drug book.
