The Tarascon Pocket Pharmacopoeia continues to be the most popular and most trusted portable drug dosing reference available, and is a "must-have" book (Doody's book reviews)! Newly updated for 2007, the Tarascon Pocket Pharmacopoeia continues the high-quality tradition of a convenient, organized, and concise pocket manual packed with vital drug information meticulously peer-reviewed by experts and clinicians of multiple specialties. It details typical drug dosing (both FDA approved and off-label uses), available trade and generic formulations, metabolism, safety in pregnancy and lactation, relative drug pricing information, Canadian trade names, and an Herbal & Alternative Therapies section. Multiple invaluable tables supplement the drug content, including opioid equivalency, emergency drug infusions, cardiac dysrhythmia protocols, pediatric drug dosing, and much more.

What Customers Say About Tarascon Pocket Pharmacopoeia, 2007 Classic Shirt-Pocket Edition:

Small enough to fit in your shirt pocket makes it a permanent fixture on you on the wards & in the clinic. Really only good for finding common drug dosages. Don't use it to learn pharm or therapeutics. [.].
This is a must have in practice. The NP that I was practicing with during my clinical rotation actually told me to get this and he was correct, you have everything you need in one book.
I am a pharmacist and carry this book with me everywhere. It is small enough to fit in my purse and it can answer questions on dosing, indications, and much more. It is definitely a lot faster to use than the slow computers at the pharmacy.
I use this pocket guide more often than I use my palm pilot for drug doses. My lab coat is not complete without this book. Even when I am on call, I make sure I have one of my multiple copies at bedside so I can look up meds in the middle of the night. Also, I am a preceptor for PA students, and I recommend each and every one of them purchase some version of this guide (and most of them do).
It's great IF the ONLY info you need is dosing information. If you need more information like SIDE EFFECTS, METHOD OF ACTION, etc, 'Clinician's Pocket Drug Reference' from Scut Monkey is far more useful/helpful. At least it was (and is) to me during med school and now in residency.
