5.0 out of 5 stars Easy guide for nursing student
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2010
Verified Purchase
I carried this to clinicals during nursing school and it was a quick and easy to use reference book for drugs. It was recommended by my nursing instructors when I bought it, and I recommend it to other nursing students myself. However, I would get the most current one now - this one is from 2008 when I first started the nursing program, and by my second year, there were more new drugs out that weren't in my book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Davis
Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2014

It's the only drug book I will use...it is meticulously kept up to date and is easy to breeze through to find infusion times and fairly accurate pricing. This is a book for professionals -- lay persons generally will not understand the classifications and mechanism of action of the drugs. Highly suggest that all nursing students buy this book rather than another author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Preferred drug guide for my nursing program
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2010
Verified Purchase
I am a first year nursing student. The Davis Drug Guide was the one recommended by the program. We use it every day in the course work.
If I had to redesign this reference work, the one thing I would add would be an expanded section on drug groups and classifications. It helps the student to understand the drug if they can understand the group it belongs to. Each drug class has its own characteristics, mechanisms of action, interactions and side effects. There are a few pages of groups of drugs, but not enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nursing school - Resource kit CD priceless
Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2009
Verified Purchase
The Davis Drug guide for PDA was required for our clinicals but I purchased this book too. It proved to be extremely valuable for the clinical preps. The CD rom has an easy lookup to the drugs. Writing the clinical preps would have been hours longer if I hadn't been able to look the drug ups so easily. I recommend this just for the CD alone, and I have used the book as well.

I purchased this book as a supplement for my nursing classes and clinicals. All medical students need this book. Editions change, but Davis's guide is the gold standard, in my book. I still have it and have seen older and newer editions in all sorts of medical arenas. The CD is helpful, too.

1.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Poorly Designed, Whoever produced this should have copied the design model on blackberry and android
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2011
Verified Purchase
I'm thoroughly disappointed. This release reflects a complete lack of thought process that went into it's design. This is probably one of the perfect examples of why technology and healthcare are such an awkward fit at times. This was probably designed by a programmer or someone else with little or no feedback from a healthcare provider, or in other words, definitely not designed by ANYONE who would need to USE the reference at the bedside. How on earth am I supposed to locate a drug organized the way it is in the table of contents? If I new the class I wouldn't be looking the drug up in the first place. An RN would understand that.

To improve it, FIX the table of contents so that the classes take you to a separate page FOR EACH CLASS of drugs which then lists all the drugs in that category. Each entry on this page is the name both trade and generic of a drug and if you press the link it takes you to the page of the drug. Then in the index, each drug entry by name and generic is a link to the actual page in the ebook where you would find it (the purpose of this is if you don't know the class you can still find the drug). Alternatively if this is too labor intensive, JUST PUT A LOCATION NUMBER next to the entry so it can be navigated to manually. If you really want to make a value added useful tool, then allow the search field to discriminate between simple mentions of the name of the drug and actual title pages of the actual drug entry. Finally add links to the sections within each drug entry to facilitate jumping from section to section (for example being able to go from the pregnancy category to the implementation section if I want to know if I can give this to a pregnant mother and then if I need to know y-site compatibility and how I should give the drug). the only thing needed would be to update it each year with new information.

These changes make it worth the money, quality does cost I understand, but this isn't worth spending $ on. This should never have left the production facility. I trusted it would be identical to the app on blackberry and android and was sadly mistaken, in it's present, form, this book is just a simple book offering no better organization than if I were to google the drug, not a bedside reference tool, I'd use it's paper equivalent first. Total waste of money for it's intended purpose!

Looking for drug info here is a waste of our already sorely stretched time. I can find it faster on my phone, than in this dedicated application.

I have used a few types of drug guides as a nurse. I find the others to often have too much information or not enough, and it can be difficult to find what info you're looking for. Davis's has a lot to offer and I can find whatever I'm looking for in it.
