Excellent clinical reference for those in family practice!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Great book that allows the ARNP to prescribe medications with confidence. More advanced than nursing drug books and very helpful for anyone in family practice. Includes information that I find helpful in dealing with a pediatric population. Also addresses new drugs not frequently covered in ordinary drug books currently available. I plan to upgrade with any new additions.
