Description:

The new seventh edition of The Pill Book is bigger than ever and contains more profiles of commonly prescribed drugs than any other consumer reference. Compiled by a team of eminent pharmacologists, it is based on official, FDA-approved information usually available only to doctors and pharmacists, plus the latest information gathered from computer databases and professional on-line resources. It synthesizes the most important facts about each drug into a concise, readable, easy-to-understand entry.



Here are complete profiles of more than 1,500 of the most commonly prescribed drugs, including:



Generic and brand names



What the drug is for and how it works



Usual dosages, and what to do if a dose is skipped



Side effects and possible adverse reactions, highlighted for quick reference



Interactions with other drugs and foods



Overdose and addiction potential



Alcohol-free and sugar-free medications



Information for seniors, pregnant and breast-feeding women, and others with special needs



Cautions and warnings, and when to call your doctor



This completely revised and updated seventh edition contains dozens of new brand names and more than 25 important new drugs approved by the FDA in late 1995, that will go on sale for the first time in 1996. A 32-page insert provides actual-size full-color photographs of the most-prescribed pills.
