I am still using it. It is very helpful and has everything you will need to know. I've only had to find drug information for a couple supplements not listed in this book.

Indispensible, October 21, 2012
By Maureen (BIRMINGHAM, AL, United States)

My students use this book every day in clinic. Although they are familiar with the medications that patients are taking, they often are not certain about side effects or drug interactions and need to use this resource to quickly confirm appropriate medications when considering the patients current medications. And it works even when internet connections are not available.

This is a nice reference for a general dental office. It receives attention about 3-5 times a week. I received this promptly, and am happy with the purchase.
