 Good price, fast delivery January 7, 2009
Sandra M. Walter (Lincoln, NE)
This book arrived quickly and was purchased for less than any other vendor offered it, either online or at the store.
 No CD January 1, 2009
Hussein Ali Huwaidi (Saihat, ES Saudi Arabia)
I bought this for my wife from Amazon all the way to Saudi Arabia because it's the best there in the market. When we received the package, we found out that it doesn't come with a CD any more. This is a bad purchase! don't buy this book, instead buy the older edition (2008) that one comes with a CD. br / br /I consider this purchase a loss of money as Amazon didn't show that this is the only edition that doesn't come with a CD although I would get a CD with a cheaper one. br / br /I blame Amazon.
Very good!! December 29, 2008

I bought this on amazon because it was so much cheaper than buying it in the book store. Easy to use, and fits easily in my bag. Thanks!!
Great book for reference and refreshing December 29, 2008
M. S. Horne (New Zealand)
I bought the 2009 Lippincotts Nursing Drug Guide. It has been a great tool to have. It fits in my bag and i can refer to it when patients ask me about their drugs. A very useful reference guide. Drugs in USA may have a different name fom ours here down under in New Zealand, but even so one can work out what the generic name is. An invaluable guide to have I would not be without it. br / br /Marg Horne
