 Everybody's gotta have one..... April 27, 2008
This is your average, run of the mill Medical Dictionary. It does what it's supposed to do. It is a medical reference book that we all need when we work in the field (nurse, doctor, etc).

Very informational easy to understand good referral for anyone having to give medicines and not sure of what does or does mix with other meds. Good reference for Dosages, side effects. A book that not just nurses can learn from but very helpful. I have used this book from other years all the time and much better than referring to PDR.
