Frequently Prescribed Medications: Drugs You Need to Know 3rd Edition

Very good buy

It’s an ok book. I wouldn’t purchase again. There is a pharmacotherapeutics book (eighth edition) by Woo and Robinson that I adore and use more often!!

The book's selling point is supposed to be that it condenses every drug's information down to the most important facts you need to know, but it lists doses that nobody uses, brand names that nobody has ever heard of, and even drugs that are rarely seen in practice. This being the case, the only real use for the book is as a drug information resource, not a study tool - but if you need a drug information resource, why not use one of the thousand better resources out there?In some cases, the book contains information that's flat out wrong, e.g. it lists Vicodin as a C-III substance, even though it has been C-II since long before this version was published. I'd rather not have to fact-check every piece of information in a drug information resource as I read through it.
