Veterinary Technicians..useful resource, Dec 31 2005
By Anastasia L. Baima - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Plumb's Veterinary Drug Handbook, Desk Edition (Paperback)
This edition is not only easy to read and access, but is also updated with the latest information. I have found recent drugs easily and have added this book to my reference collection. The drug listings are easy to use with both chemical and common names in the indexes. A great Book and a wonderful edition.

Great Resource!, Feb 21 2006
By Susan J. Hamilton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Plumb's Veterinary Drug Handbook, Desk Edition (Paperback)
This is a great resource for those of us who own pets with a number of medical conditions/number of medications prescribed. It makes it much easier to understand the medications, potential side effects and drug interactions. I feel like I can have a more educated conversation with my Veterinarian about medications and supplements now that I have this resource. I really like that fact that this book contains information about supplements along with prescription medications! Very useful!

This review is from: Plumb's Veterinary Drug Handbook, Desk Edition (Paperback)
This book breaks down hundreds of drugs so that you understand what they are, how they are used, what dosages, etc. Most every drug you can think of is in here. Each medication has at least one full page dedicated to it. The only drawback I have seen is that some of the drugs have secondary effects, and have been used specifically for those effects, but that is completely overlooked. All in all, if you want to delve deeper into what you are giving your animals, or want to know more about what you should be giving your animals, this is the book for you. I also highly reccomend the Merck Veterinary handbook as these two work very well together.
