The PDR Pocket Guide to Prescription Drugs Tenth Edition

Seems like a good source of info but cover pages are not sustainable for constant use.

I always get a n updated version every two or three years. Will always use or recommend that others double check prescription drug uses and ALL interactions BEFORE taking (or filling) medicines. Doctors are great but they can't remember everything about every medicine out there. It could save a life.I started buying this type of book the year my daughter was hospitalized AFTER taking a prescription and I didn't know what Bad side effects to watch for. A medicine for an ear infection could have killed her.I highly recommend that you keep yourself informed and if you think your doctor might have forgotten to ask ALL the right questions you can double check more-so for peace of mind.Also suggest you supervise use around those who may abuse drugs. This could help them LOOK for drugs....etc.....

Ilike it because I can find the brand name gor a generic that is prescribed for me Many of my medications I have taken for a number of years and am more familiar with the brand names. I also like to know what ingredients are in new medications prescribed for me.

We had an older edition and needed an update. We use it quite often for various reasons and this pocket edition works great for us. And as always, it arrived very quickly. We had to order other things because the shipping charge for just this book was too expensive.

This 9th edition of this reference book replaced our 5th edition. The new book is in the same easy-to-read format. My wife is a nurse and is quite impressed with the many cautions and recommendations provided. It has been our experience over the years that a copy of this should be in everyone's library. The myriads of medicines now being prescribed require that the consumer be well educated on the effects and side-effects of pills, etc..

I only use the star system to rate movies and books because who knows who I am and why would you listen to me anyway?

ALSO, YOU CAN READ MY REVIEWS OF THE PHYSICIANS' DESK REFERENCE [THE UPDATED 2015, 69TH EDITION] AND THE 2015 COMPLETE GUIDE FOR RX AND NON-RX DRUGS. EVERY FAMILY NEEDS THESETHREE BOOKS FOR SEVERAL REASONS, BUT THIS DOES NOT REPLACE YOUR DOCTOR. IF YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY-->DIAL 911DIAL 911 FOR EMERGENCIES!!!THIS IS PRODUCED BY THE P.D.R. STAFF FOR GENERAL INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC AND PROFESSIONAL INDIVIDUALS.

I expected something newer than my old copywriter 2010. Instead I received a duplicate of my junk. This is trivial fraud

Good

Over the Moon with my purchase. Really informative and easy to follow and understand. The information it gives is very informative and easy to follow. It gets a 5/5 from me.

Just got mine and it's in perfect condition. And I hope I can get the most out of it.... :)

Great book. Exactly what I was looking for. There is Brand and Generic Name Index. There is also Diseases and Disorders index. Would have given it 5 stars, but book came a bit damaged.

Not sure in what world someone would carry this in their pocket... far from an easy to carry daily use item.
