Complete Guide to Prescription & Nonprescription Drugs 2018-2019

I will not use another Prescription book, as the is the absolute best one on the market. Every time I know a revised book is coming out ( but not necessary for all people to keep rebuying new ones- I just to), I always keep the updated version in my home, and I will NOT take a Med. prescribed before I read up on it. THIS book helped my husband tremendously and also his Dr. , as my husband had to be rushed to a hospital and it was THIS BOOK that told our Dr. that he had every common, less common & less frequesnt side affect-thus he was able to be treated. This was 4 yrs. ago about my husband. I even bought the book for that DR.,as he liked it alot too and wanted one! Even tells you how long it will take before med. starts working!

For someone who is dependent on medications for well being, this book is a must.Simple to read and understand.

This book is easy to read and understand. It provides the generic and brand names associated with each drug class along with information regarding uses for the drug. Each drug class provides the following information; dosage and usage information, overdose symptoms and what to do, what the drug does, time lapse before the drug works and symptoms of possible adverse reactions or side effects along with if the side effects are life-threatening, common, infrequent or rare and if you should continue using the drug or discontinue and seek medical attention right away, warnings and precautions, such as prolonged use, driving, etc. It also provides a list of possible interactions with other drugs and other substances (Alcohol, Beverages, Cocaine, Foods, Marijuana and Tobacco) and the combined effect of using the drugs/substances together.

Every year the book is updated to include new prescription and nonprescription drugs. I like the fact that it is in paperback and affordable. It is easy to understand. What I found most helpful was that it tells you all the possible side effects and drug interactions. I have found this book invaluable and will continue to buy the updated versions for years to come.

This is the most compleate drug book I have come across. It gives basic information, possible adverse reactions and side effects as well as uses of the drug. Contains both Brand and generic names. This book is so good I have family and friends call me to look up information... This book will give you a compleate picture and you will stay informed...
