5,000 entries

This dictionary is an ideal source of reference on the wide range of medicines available today. It covers over-the-counter, pharmacy, and prescription medicines. It contains entries for classes of drugs such as antibiotics, generic names such as ibuprofen, and proprietary names such as Prozac and Arthrotec. Comprehensive information on side effects and interactions with other medicines are given, and there are entries on conditions and the medicines used to treat them. Terms used in the prescription and supply of medicine are provided.

Written in an accessible style, it is perfect for meeting the increasing demands from patients and their families for information about the medicines they are taking. It is also an invaluable aid for paramedical workers and medical students.
