Praise for the first edition:
'An excellent book, It is well written and readable. Contains excellent information and is well researched and referenced. The practice points/implications for practice and case studies are relevant and enhance the book.

As a midwifery student I bought this book when learning drug names/effects etc. Its comprehensive and well ordered with drug types in sections. Also, a little physiology about conditions is provided which is extremely useful. To be honest I'm surprised there is only one other review - It is definitely worth buying and will be used well into my qualified years.....

I saw this advertised and , having been qualified for some time I find that I cannot always find answers to my questions easily. This has the answers to my questions and ansers others I hadn't even thought of. A really super book, very in depth though so if you are a student be wary until quite a way into training.

This book is easy to read and understand. For the pharmacology aspect of the my midwifery course I could not have done without it.
