Now expanded and improved, this 12th Edition stands as the most
widely acclaimed resource for practising dermatologists, primary care
physicians, and hospital consultants. This updated and enlarged
edition perfectly answers the busy physician’s need for a comprehensive,
authoritative, and independent guide to known adverse effects to newly approved,
commonly prescribed, and over-the-counter drugs, herbals, and supplements.

Founded on evidence-based data, from published journal reports, this title features:

• Identification of potentially hazardous drug–drug interactions
• A multi-drug search facility that simplifies the task of pinpointing which drug may be causing a specific reaction
• Listing of over 1000 generic drugs, including herbals and supplements
• Comprehensive indexes for rapid look up by generic or trade name, or manufacturer
• A new reaction category for this year – cardiovascular – which includes arrhythmias, myocardial ischemia, bradycardia, and myocardial infarction
• Over 1000 reaction patterns, grouped under the headings of skin, hair, nails, eyes, cardiovascular, and other – from acne to xerostomia
• A listing of drugs responsible for 108 common reaction patterns
• More than 30,000 references
• Expanded range of herbals and supplements and their interactions with prescription drugs
