The Top 100 Drugs: Clinical Pharmacology and Practical Prescribing

My student nurse daughter uses it all the time. An excellent introduction to medicines and their administration

Very good book for pharmacy students. Has all mechanisms and contradictions in the book very extensively about each medicine.

Might just lack a few information but very useful for on the go. Easy to use

Very informative and great to have as an MPharm student from early on!

This updated book has been a godsend. I purchased while completing my prescribing qualification to help me get through the slog! It became my bible there is so much information (that is all relevant) for the most commonly used drugs. It sections them well into subheadings. The book is of a high quality and I am often recommending this book to others. As new updates come out I will be purchasing to support with my CPD.

Bought this book to help with clinical knowledge and to help with patient counselling, each medication has a section on communication describing points to talk to patients about. This is a brilliant addition and puts it apart from other medication books. Each medication listed has; common indications, mechanism of action, adverse effects, warnings, interactions, prescription, administration, communication, monitoring and stopping and cost. I think it is more uk medicine based and will be a good book for any kind of pharmacy student.

Brilliant book, wish I had discovered it earlier in my pharmacy career, im making flash cards now for revision from it for the gphc exam.

As a pharmacist this is my number one

Getting better with each edition.

Libro ideale per studenti di medicina o affini, per avere sempre con sé i 100 farmaci più prescritti e più in uso praticamente ovunque. Ben scritto e pratico da usare e leggere. Molto consigliato sia per un'occhiata rapida che per uno studio più approfondito. Di certo non sostituisce altri manuali di farmacologia ben più completi ed esaustivi per lo studio della materia.

contains all drugs that you should know as a pharmacy student

E.g. under Sulfonylureas has drug gliclazide listed (not used in US) but not Glyburide which is pretty common here. A1c listed in mmol/mol instead of more common %. Found other issues as well on other pages.
