Format:Paperback
I bought Pocket Prescriber by recommendation of another F1 doctor in the UK. I find it a very good quick reference guide to help you with prescriptions as drugs are constantly updated and it is difficult to keep up with them.

Format:Paperback
I don't think I could have survived the first few weeks of F1 without this handy little book. Everything in alphabetical order, much less complex than the BNF, and gives correct doses in various preparations, SFX, CI etc. Brilliant
