A Rapid-fire Pocket Pharmacopoeia designed for use in the Emergency Department or Urgent Care, but great for anyone who wants a fast pharmacopoeia that also has side effects, contraindications and an extensive antibiotic guide.
This pocket pharmacopoeia is fast and easy to use because of its tabular alphabetical organization. It is also perfect for the ED because it contains side-effects and contraindications for each drug. The side effects column is particularly useful. You look like a star when you have a seemingly complex case that may have even eluded the patient’s PCP and you rapidly figure out that the symptoms are all listed in the side effects column of a drug the patient recently started or upped the dose on. There is also an entire section on empiric antibiotics for over 200 diseases so you can leave your Sanford Guide at home. Nurses will appreciate the compatability charts and the emergency drip charts.
