Find thousands of prescription and over-the-counter drugs, including the newest drugs on the market. What's more, this valuable guide covers all the major drugs given for high blood pressure, diabetes, menstrual problems, depression, arthritis, breathing problems, headaches, heartburn...and hundreds of other conditions.
For each drug, you'll find out in a single page: why it's prescribed...why doctors select a drug and what dosage is standard; how to take your medication...with food? before bedtime? If you miss a dose...what to do if you forget to take your medication; if you suspect an overdose...dangerous symptoms and how to respond; warnings...which medical conditions forbid certain drugs, whether a drug endangers pregnancy, and other important advice for safe drug use; side effects...which side effects may occur and when to report them; and drug and food interactions...combinations that can cause serious, even life-threatening problems.
In addition, you'll discover life-size, full-color photos of tablets and capsules and what to do quickly about poisons and drug overdoses.
