Consumer's Dictionary Of Medicines Prescriptions, : Over-the-Counter & Herbal, Plus Medical Definitions

Rating:
Summary: A very complete & concise guide to every known medicinal.
Review: This is an excellent & complete reference to every medicinal product from Dristan Nasal Spray to marijuana to Zyrtec. It includes uses, abuses, side effects, interactions, FDA warnings and results of scientific research (if available) for every known drug. It is in dictionary format with references and cross references for scientific, generic and common names of each medicine. All of the pharmacological terms are also referenced. The book uses readily understandable descriptions without being oversimplified. There are not specific dosage recommendations and there are no illustrations, but otherwise this book has everything. I recommend it for health care professionals as well as consumers and give it 4 and 1/2 stars.
