The Pediatric Drug Handbook

Rating:
Summary: OVERTLY ABRIDGED, BUT STILL GOOD ENOUGH
Review: "The Pediatric Drug Handbook" did a good job in listing (and describing) many of the most frequently employed pharmaceuticals. The book grouped drugs and allied medications in an easy-to-locate sequence: based on their individual disease category.
Information concerning drug administration, dosage, pharmacokinetics, contraindication, and toxicity were provided. The text also featured several illustrative tables on a variety of paediatric statistics, including clinical pharmacology.
This is a very fine paediatric handbook, but the fact that most of its information were overtly summarized discouraged me from rating it higher than I would have liked to. Still, I would not discourage anybody from investing on it. Its portability is a great asset!
