Publisher's Synopsis
Nurses are at the forefront when it comes to safe medication use and counseling patients. PDR Nurse's Drug Handbook 2011 provides all nursing professionals in any clinical setting with accurate, up-to-date, and easily accessible information on over 1,500 of the most commonly prescribed drugs. Based on the FDA-approved labeling, PDR's staff of pharmacists have developed concise monographs that highlight the most important information on each drug, including its approved use, dosages, interactions with other drugs, food and alcohol, side effects, safety information, and more. In addition, clear, straightforward nursing considerations provide guidance on proper patient assessment and monitoring as well as patient counseling and drug administration.
