great reference:
I have been using this since residency - still prefer it to epocrates. I do also use Epocrates, but I like having this in my coat pocket.
Still Good after all these years:
I used this from 1993 until 1999. Then got out of the habit of using it for 11 years til now (2010).
It has gotten twice as thick as before, lol! But still very useful & small, lean & mean as another reviewer said. I use a iTouch with Lexidrugs on it, if I need more detail (adverse reactions & percentages, etc. for more unusual drugs like infliximab, & such). CONS:
1. needs a plastic cover, gets destroyed too easily. I would pay an extra buck for this. I had to make one... more info
Great product:
I use it daily on my medical practice. Great for reference. Better edition that the one I used (Taracson Pocket Pharmacopoeia 2006!!!!).
I carry the Tarascon Pocket Pharmacopoeia Classic Shirt-Pocket Edition in my pocket at all times. If I ever need to know correct doses or milligrams available I have it at my finger tips.
