This handbook is organized alphabetically by generic drug name with information nurses need before, during, and after drug administration, including patient teaching. Mechanism of action illustrations... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is the first reasonably priced nurses drug reference I have purchased. The print is easy on the eyes, the book stays open when you need it, and the information is detailed and includes beneficial alerts in red. The single reason I did not give it a 5 star is because it does not have the main drug interection complication in bold (I am used to seeing this in other reference books)... Still.. this is, by far, the best drug reference I have found in over three years of nursing.
Finally, a drug handbook you can read

The publisher's comments are, for once, right on the money on this new book, but they seem to gloss over the big news--the page layout is fantastic and you can actually read the type! I also found it full of very practical information and geared to the nurse rather than the MD. There are a lot of drug handbooks out there (maybe too many, in fact) but this one is the one I'm probably going to use the most often.
