 Good to have in shirt pocket September 4, 2010
James H
I've found it invaluable for dosages and quick references for common drugs, but it does miss a good chunk of drugs we do need to know in hospital. I'd companion this with epocrates on your pda/blackberry/smart phone since it doesnt have some of the more important things like contraindications.
 Totally Satisfied August 30, 2010

A must for every physician July 31, 2010

This pocket book is a must for every physician. If you are a resident in your first year you will open it at least every 30 min!

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 May 13, 2010

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 of my own (cut a spare larger plastic cover down & heat sealed the edges).
2. the pages need just a bit bigger margins to write in (my old Tarascons, I wrote notes in tiny handwriting on the margin of the page, but now that margin is gone. Give me another 3-4 mm of margin to write a note in).
