Complete Guide to Prescription & Nonprescription Drugs 2016-2017 Paperback – November 3, 2015

I have had an Old 2005 copy of "Complete Guide to Prescription and Non Prescription Drugs" in my home for years. It has been an invaluable guide. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, and some of the Meds I take are scary indeed. That Medical Guide was a good place to go to find out what my meds interacted with, what were the signs of a bad reaction.....just good advice that helped me avoid any issues.That said.......medical treatment for R.A. has moved into the new medical field of biological drugs. They are miracles, but the side effects can be dangerous. They do lower your immune system's ability to fight disease, but the relief they give to pain, and the mobility they restore are also wonderful. The New Issue does not discuss biological drugs. There is a brief discussion, but the individual types are not broken down. Until biological drugs, and other new medical advances are added to the book, I would not recommend buying. I feel it is a matter of time until that is done, and then.............It is a most helpful book to have in your home.

I use the book regularly. It's very informative and well written. I used it recently to look up a drug that my doctor prescribed and found out about some side effects that he didn't tell me about. This book is a keeper!

The book is not real up to date. But it is good as far as it goes. Book was well maintained.

Complete Guide to Prescription & Nonprescription Drugs 2016-2017 I found this book a little different than the other pill book I had but once my wife and I figured out the lay out it worked great.Re. Joseph

This great book replaces a similar book that was published in 2006. It is very up to date and full of useful information that is easy to find. I would definitely recommend this book to others, and in fact my RN sister is going to purchase a copy. Thank you amazon.com for making this wonderful reference book available.

a good book to have, but did not include any of the opiate meds. Those meds are often prescribed for extreme pain and should have been included in this book.

A good source of information for the layman. Have used the publication for years purchasing updated editions as they become available.

There are no pictures in this book and my narcotic i am on is not in the book but it talks about them in general......

This is not what I expected nor what I want really. I wanted a simple guide to any drugs prescribed, what they are used for, side effects . This is a little more than needed for me,with a lot of information I don't want and not all information I need. However I have given this away and so it will be put to good use.

Useful reference, should be part of every basic home library.

Dese mi punto de visita no me gusto. No especifica dosis Pediatrica y diluciones de medicamentos. No es la competencia ni se parece en nada a Taketomo

Great book, it's a thick book, and a bit large, but its good this way, since pocket books can get very thick, and hard to flip through.
