I bought this book to study for my upcoming PTCB exam. I am using it almost everyday at work and love it. It gives more information than the basic free books printed by drug companies and is laid out for quick reference. The obscure drugs that are rarely used are in there as well as the ones most used and this is helping me for my exam study. If you are looking at this book and considering it, you must need it. Go ahead and order it!
Excellent Resource

This is an excellent resource for drug listings. Everyone who takes prescription drugs should have a copy of this book. I am studying to become a Certified Pharmacy Technician, and this is an excellent go to book. The size of the book is nice because it's small enough to carry in a pocket, for ease of use.

Worth it

For its size it contains a great deal of information. Do not buy this if you are looking for a very very comprehensive guide with "every" drug name there is. I used mine alongside my studying. If you are studying for your PTCE and watch shows like Grey's Anatomy or HOUSE (etc etc) - keep your book at hand. Just to keep you a bit more on your toes.
