About this app

McGraw-Hill Clinician’s Pocket Drug Reference 2016 - Exactly what you need to know about 1400 of the most commonly used medications.

***This is a fully functional 1-day trial version***

Organized alphabetically by generic drug name, Clinician's Pocket Drug Reference zeros-in on must-know information such as selection and administration, mechanisms of action, dosage, cautions, contraindications, and side effects. Proving that sometimes less text can deliver more information, this super-concise guide covers more than one thousand of the most commonly used medications and summaries of FDA "Black Box" precautions and contraindications.

"A big plus is the herbal section, which lists the medicines patients are most likely to try on their own, presented in the same layout as the rest of the book...For its size, this book is a valuable resource. It takes up very little pocket room, and it is an efficient way to recall details about familiar drugs." - Yale Journal of Biology & Medicine
