5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT APhA review of OTC Medications
This is a great guide to OTC treatments recommended by the APhA. As a pharmacy school student interested in community pharmacy, this book is a great guide to approved treatments and current standard of practice treatment guidelines for patients. It covers current treatment options for a variety of medical conditions and tells you the current guidelines for when it's appropriate to treat and when you should refer a patient to their physician. Each chapter highlights exclusion criteria for treatment, standard dosing information, and provides patient case assessment to test your knowledge at the chapter conclusion. If you are a pharmacy student or a medical student, this book will come quite in handy for you!
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource - Comprehensive for even a Multitude of topics
On first impression I was surprised by how physically light this textbook is for its size. The text reads clearly, but the tables are most valuable for getting to reference information quickly. This would be a great addition to a family bookshelf for when anyone needs safe medical self-care for pain or a multitude of common problems.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Self Care Class
I'm in pharmacy school and this was a requirement. We had an online copy but after getting the physical book I was hooked. The format of the book is pretty straightforward and is easy to navigate. The information is very thorough and there are handy flowcharts to help you process the information. As well there are counseling examples with summaries so you can tailor the information to the patient and overload them with details.
3.0 out of 5 stars Wish it were on Kindle
I agree with the person that said this book is light for its size, but I really wish it came in a Kindle edition since that would be much easier to read. I do wish that the book gave more brand names of the different drugs. The tables are helpful as noted in the previous reviews, which might be a problem if this were on Kindle. This probably isn't the right place to say this, but it sure would be nice if the Kindle reader function could zoom in on things because the one drawback I have noted with my other textbooks on Kindle is that some of the tables are really difficult to read and they do not zoom--it would be nice to have that upgraded.

Wow. What can I say that hasn't been said before. Well, this book is excellent. I've been using it this first semester in my pharmacy OTC class. I like the organization of the charts. What is really great about this book, is that despite it's large and thick size, it's VERY light!
4.0 out of 5 stars Decent text...
I had to get this book for a class. The text is pretty detailed but is organized according to various conditions e.g. headache, fever etc. For some persons, it might be a good idea to use this book in tandem with another text that discusses OTC drugs alphabetically according to their names. Overall, the book is a bit busy but it has alot of useful info.
5.0 out of 5 stars Nonprescription Drays
There are many ways to o say the to treat what ills you. This book contains tons of information that every home should have in its arsenal. This has come in handy. I have a better understanding of my choices.
