Consumer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: always loved this book Comment: i've always loved this book. it's in an easy to use format with the latest info. i always carry it with me to work. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Comment: I received the book very quickly and it's in great condition as stated by the seller. Customer Rating: Summary: just what I was looking for Comment: I needed this book for nursing school and for working on a med-surg floor. My only complaint is that the pages are thin and are starting to tear out of the spiral part with increased use of this book. Customer Rating: Summary: "Must have" for hospital pharmacists Comment: This book is well organized and easy to use, and it has information that you can't find anywhere else. As a hospital pharmacist, I use it just about every day. It's great for looking up information on volume and type of diluent, and it's by far the most comprehensive reference I've found on recommended rates of administration--for some drugs it's the only place I've been able to find that info. It also contains some general information on the drug itself, indications, dose range, and what to expect and watch for during and after the infusion. I know this has been particularly helpful for nurses I've worked with when they're giving a new med or one they haven't seen very often. Overall, this is one of the most frequently used quick-reference books in every hospital pharmacy I've worked in, and I make sure every student I precept is familiar with it. I think we'd be well served to have a copy at every nurses' station, too. Customer Rating: Summary: Useful Book Comment: Very thorough and informative book with easy access to information. I'm a nursing student and this has been invaluable. Lots of detail not found in other books
