This book has clear guidelines for prescribing oral contraceptive agents. It provides a section on bothersome side effects, causal factors and options. The section on contraceptive activity is good as is the composition and identification section. Very helpful, easy to use and it takes the guesswork out of oral contraception.

Essential Tool for the Primary Care Practitioner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As a primary care practitioner, I have found each edition of this book invaluable and an essential tool in my practice. The most worn pages in this book are those listing all commonly prescribed oral contraceptives along with their estrogenic and progesterone effects. Its unique quick reference index in the center of the book is also indispensible for a practitioner in a tearing hurry to locate the most current recommendations to treat a particular side effect. Highly recommended!
