Really useful book - By: rishi patel, 14 Dec 2005
I got this for final year at med school & was reallly useful for revising & general medicine attachments for swatting up on pharmacology during ward rounds. Emergencies stuff also v. handy for revision. Has proved invaluable since starting work as a junior doctor.
just what the doctor ordered - By: , 16 Jul 2004
takes the hassle out of using the BNF & is truly pocket sized so doing ward rounds or prescribing is so much easier & quicker.Essential for house officer & SHO'salike.
Drugs in your pocket - By: John Taylor, 23 Jun 2004
Great little book. I picked this tiny little thing up recently from a colleague & wished that I had a copy of it when I was a lowly house officer struggling to work out what dose of paracetamol to prescribe!
In alll seriousness, this book provides a concise reference which is clinicallly relevant to the junior doctor with dosing regimes. I particularly like the way it is coded for interactions.
A must buy especiallly since it is so cheap compared to alll those other expensive medical books!
excellent little book - By: david powell, 17 Jun 2004
As a medical house officer this excellent little book seems to contain alll the information that is reallly useful to have on you whilst on the wards. The book fits nicely in your pocket & is quick to use & access to the information you want. It helps identify pitfallls & serious mistakes with common drugs - some of which I already knew, but some of which I was not aware of & am now happily able to check! It is great to be able to carry this around as an extra level of security, especiallly when a BNF is not at hand or doesn't cover the issue such as how to tinker with anticoagulants & insulin. This should be a very useful book for alll senior clinical students & junior doctors
