Customer Reviews

A must have for clinicians!

Very helpful, quick reference for Physicians, Pharmacists and Nurses to determine possible effects of renal disease on drug disposition.

Survival Source

After completing a residency in internal medicine/pediatrics and using many other sources to decide on renal drug dosing I have been most delighted with the introduction to this one at the beginning of my nephrology fellowship. The very rapid accessible concise format of key essentials I need for patients with temporary or chronic renal failure are also adjusted for types of renal replacement therapy. Only suggestion I have is: please update with new addition and more meds included as soon as possible. Wish I had known about this book from the first day of my internship.

A must for anyone caring for renal patients.

As a Renal Case Manager, this book has been quite valuable to me in the care of my patients. If I have a question about dosing guidelines for my patients I have a quick and easy source to guide me in my decisions. The drugs are divided into different classes for easy access to the information. This book is a must for any member of your renal team.
