For nearly half a century, doctors have relied on Physicians' Desk Reference - commonly known as the PDR - for all the official, FDA approved drug information they need when they prescribe medications for you.
The book includes hundreds of entries, which cover the following subjects: Why is the drug prescibed? What is the most important fact about the drug? How should you take this drug? What side effects might occur? Why should you avoid this drug? What are special warnings about this drug? What are the possible food interactions? What if you're pregnant? What is the recommended dosage? What do you do in case of overdosage?
The book also includes a 16 page color insert, showing most common drugs discussed.
