Essential Pharmacotherapy Data at Your Fingertips! A Doody's Core Title ESSENTIAL PURCHASE! 4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW
"The book addresses all aspects of 84 disease states and disorders, from presentation and pathology to treatment and monitoring. Each chapter focuses on individual groups of medication considered for treatment and gives a concise overview of them in easy to see bulleted points. The qualities that I find especially useful are that charts and algorithms are easily identifiable and tables are shaded light gray for quick reference . . . Although this handbook contains an enormous amount of information, it conveniently fits into a lab coat pocket. It is an extremely useful reference." -- Doody's Pharmacotherapy Handbook delivers the essential information you need to quickly and confidently make drug therapy decisions for eighty-four diseases and disorders. Featuring a convenient alphabetized presentation, the book utilizes text, tables, figures, and treatment algorithms to make important drug data readily accessible and easily understandable.

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.

Great effort that sums basic pharmacology with pharmacy practice.
Highly recommended for any HCP to keep updated

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!

Dipiro is GOAT. Nothing else to say here (except that I hope I pass my final exam today).

[Malak · Rating 4 out of 5]

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.
