Reviews for Davis's Drug Guide for Nurses, 15th Edition

Invaluable. "This... resource has been invaluable for my clinicals and pharm class."--CJ Bob

Perfect for a nursing student. "I feel that I didn't need my pharmacology book, and could have just used this. It's organized and comprehensive, and for each drug has nursing implications with assessments, "potential" nursing diagnoses, teaching, and evaluations."--Amazon Reviewer

This is your book. "If you want to know about drugs, this is your book. Very thorough and helpful with my nursing classes."--Michael Grewing.

Use this every day! "The most helpful book ever created for Pharmacology! I use this every single day!"--C. Kelly

A Must-Have. "An absolute must have. Great Book.--Rocco DeMario

Hands down the best drug guide. "I am very pleased with this drug guide. I am in nursing school and this is the best drug guide hands down. I used other brands and I feel this is more organized and better to understand."--Carolina Cruz
