Summary: Drug Information Handbook
Comment: Excellent nutshell book. organized by generic name, with common brands listed, and cross indexed to generic name in the text if you look up brand name. many comparative tables in appendix simplify comparisons. not complete drug info, but very good rapidly retrivable basic info. quite current.

Rating: 5
Summary: A pharmacist's opinion
Comment: One of the best references available--recommended by pharmacy schools. Dense information per unit space. Drugs are listed alphabetically by generic name. To those who criticize this organization because of their lack of familiarity with generic names: It is a necessary compromise for manageable volume. Other inexpensive references can provide cross referencing between brand and generic names. The Drug Information Handbook gives some of the best summaries of indications, adverse reactions, drug interactions, available dosage forms, and dosing information for health care professsionals--far superior to the information in the more commonly used PDR. Medical professionals should consider using the former in place of the latter. The only criticism I have is the relatively sparse information on combination products--again, however, an understandable compromise for manageable volume.

Rating: 1
Summary: Difficult to use
Comment: This book is comprehensive with alot of good information; however, the medications are listed by generic name only. I have found it very frusterating in the clinical setting. I would suggest the authors at least include an index of both generic and trade names to make it more user-friendly.
