A large
book, sometimes called the
PDR that has
information on just about any
prescription drug you could
imagine. It includes such useful things as the
name, both
generic and brand, the
ingredients, the
side effects and
interactions with other drugs.
Since it is a
reference the
prose tends to be a bit
dense. Probably not a good book to take with you on
summer vacation. On second thought, maybe it is. I guess it all
depends on what you like to do on vacation.
