top dog not soooo.
I have bought several books on drugs due to my transcribing, and you just cannnot beat the cheap old book. The Pill Book it has about everything you need. It costs about $5.50 or a little more. It has most medicines in it. It has most if not all the info you need to transcribe and in laymans terms. This book is ok but the cheaper one is better.

A drug book that's easy to digest.
As a healthcare worker who works in a hospital, I see this book (and its various editions) on just about every floor- whether it be the cardiac floor, neurology floor, or the orthopedic floor. The point is that the scope of this book is so large and complete, that it will be a handy reference to everybody who treats patients, no matter what the diagnosis. So if you're looking for a small, complete drug reference- this is your book. Also recommend "The Sixty-Second Motivator" for tips on how to increase patient compliancy with taking meds.
