Of the non-clinical medication guides, this has been the one I've found most helpful. The photos of pills are useful, and the descriptions are detailed but accessible to public readers.
I do wish there was more information listed about off-label uses and toxicity, but that's where the PDR comes in.

This is a fabulous reference book about, you guessed it, pills. Lots of info on drug interactions and thorough coverage of side effects. Call me crazy, but I love reading about prescription drugs, especially as we become more and more dependent on them in our society.

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I find pills in weird, random places and bring them home so I can look them up. I also love to read about side effects. I should've been a nurse...
I say that I'm currently reading this because it's on an endtable and every few days I crack it open for various reasons.
Every home should have a copy.

This book is great for informtion on prescription drugs. It helped us to pinpoint a breathing problem my dad had from his eye drops. It is a lifesaver!
A great reference for addictions counselors and anyone else who needs to know about medications.
everyone should have this book. it's really useful. i use it a lot as a social worker.
It's a pill book. A book about pills. How good or bad could it be?

Not as informative as a drug book, but still, same rules applies.

Good source for checking precription drug info.
