Product Description
This is the Pocket Pharmacopoeia for the power user! The expanded version of the classic Tarascon Pocket Pharmacopoeia continues the high-quality tradition of a convenient and organized pocket manual detailing typical drug dosing (both FDA approved and off-label uses), available trade and generic formulations, metabolism, Canadian trade names, relative pricing information, and safety in pregnancy and lactation. The Deluxe takes it all a step further by including additional drugs and dosing indications, black-box warnings, notes regarding adverse effects and drug interactions, and a table of cytochrome P450 isozymes. Packed with this expanded information and more tables than the Classic, the Deluxe is still small enough to comfortably fit in your lab coat pocket. As with the Classic, all entries are meticulously peer-reviewed by drug information experts and clinicians of multiple specialties. |

A classic by G. Giannakos (US of A)  5 Stars

What is not to love. Lab coat size has print that is easier to read.

I'll choose this over any PDA by dirt55 (United States) 5 Stars
December 10, 2008
As much as I love electronics PDAs can't compare to the speed and lightweight of this gem for quick med references. It is too basic for some, but for a quick glance of dosages, generic names, pregnancy/breast feeding classes of meds, and general costs you can't beat it!

a must have in your jacket pocket unless you have a good PDA by truestar (iraq) 5 Stars
September 11, 2008
PDA's have taken over as quick pocket references, but I still use this booklet frequently enough to make it worth buying. There are IV drips on the back pages that many never noticed were there, elimination abbreviations ( explanation in first few pages of booklet:L=liver, K=kidney, and L+O= liver and onions (chek it out! I love this diddle!)) Worth the price or freebie from a drug rep. Make SURE U are using the most RECENT year, not an old one, as changes are so frequent in medicine!

Duh. . . Tarascon is the Gold Standard for drug reference by M. President (San Francisco, CA) 5 Stars
March 22, 2008
I've been a practicing internist for more than 10 years. Although much of my practice and reference materials are on computer, nothing can take the place of my Tarascon Pharmacopoeia. It is an absolute must for not only medical students and residents, but all those in primary care. I call it my "drug brain" and I feel lost without it.

Tarascon review by Happy in the tropics! (Pacific islands) 5 Stars
February 13, 2008
Very handy to use on the run. Started using these over a decade ago, and still beats a PDA for my purposes.
