The PDR Pharmacopoeia Pocket Dosing Guide is specifically designed to help reduce or eliminate errors by making dosing information readily accessible. This pocket dosing guide includes more than 1,200 chemical/ biological entities - including:

recently approved drugs,
summaries of "black box" warnings,
FDA-regulated pediatric dosage on all drugs for which such dosing exists, and
organized by indication and therapeutic class for fast access.

Concise and portable, it's ideal for point-of-care decisions.

Please note that nursing executives often buy this resource in quantity to ensure that nursing stations and physician prescribing rooms provide access to this reference. Studies have shown that easy-to-use drug references at the point of care offer reliable protection against medication errors, prescribing errors and patient care errors in administration.

Physicians and nurses have turned to PDR for the latest word on prescription drugs for over 60 years.

Today, PDR is considered the standard prescription drug reference and can be found in virtually every physician's office, hospital and pharmacy in the United States.
