I like that this is reasonably priced, organized, and practical for home use. There are a wide variety of pills included, with descriptive information about dosages and side effects. I've used this book before, but purchased this edition, as it includes updated information. Recommended.

W.W. · June 7, 2025

This book is a treasure-trove of prescription drug information! However, it would greatly benefit from using larger pages to reduce the page count. It requires substantial force to hold open the extra-thick spine. I think it should be updated to reflect modern poison-control practices, such as activated charcoal instead of inducing vomiting. It would also be helpful to have a detailed index for quick look-up; to save space, several similar drugs are often lumped together under the drug category, which makes it hard to find them by name.

As a pharmacy technician this book is very helpful. Any questions I have I go to the pill book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good book that needs to be updated

S. · November 14, 2023

This is a pretty good book. It has most of the medications I'm taking, but not all. The latest edition of this book dates from 2012 which is quite a while ago in a world where new drugs are being introduced fairly often. I looked for a more recent edition but none seems to exist. It's time for this to be updated.

A must-have in every home

R. · November 17, 2014

Every home needs this book. It contains everything your doctor and pharmacist will not tell you. It tells you the exact properties of each active ingredient in most medicines. You get to know side-effects, what it is used for, what other medications react adversely with it and who must avoid it. We update our edition every three years and can't describe how helpful it has been over the years!

A must for every houdehold.
