"A pocket book that is truly pocketable, every medical student and
junior doctor should carry this book…If you’re unsure about
prescribing a drug, a quick glance at the relevant page in this
book will tell you everything you need to know…I really cannot
recommend Pocket Prescriber highly enough."
—Oxford Medical School Gazette
"The simple precaution of checking facts in any unfamiliar
prescribing situation is likely to prevent mistakes and exemplifies
current emphasis on safe practice and clinical risk
management."
—Professor C.M. Black, Past President of the Royal College of
Physicians
"Do not rely on your memory when prescribing drugs – it is
fallible. This neat vade mecum puts the information you need at
your fingertips."
—Professor R.M. Kirk, ex-member of the Royal College of Surgeons’
Council
