It's a very useful handbook for pharmacy student. I recommend it.
You can also read the textbook for more details and the casebook for more practicing.

Good books for reviewing basic pharmacotherapy subjects, but I think some essential topics are missing. The book is brief in explanation of the topics because it is a handbook. However, some topics must be explained more deeply like anemia, dermatological disorders and Endocranial disorders.

Call me a dork for posting this book on here, but being the dork I am, I find this book very handy in school and the like. I haven't read it cover to cover, since there is no need. It is an abridged version of the textbook Pharmacotherapy, which is 2800 pages long and contains so much information it is easy to get lost. This book just gives the facts, which is usually all I need. It gives signs, symptoms, treatment algorithms and everything else that is typically needed. I know that no one really cares, but I think this book is great!

Clear, practical, and well-organized. A solid reference for clinical decision-making with concise treatment guidelines. Great for quick access, though not a deep dive into theory.
