This drug handbook provides concise, easy-to-access drug information for dental professionals and students. The book includes monographs for over 550 drugs. General monographs describe drugs that dental professionals do not prescribe, but that patients might be taking, and that might affect the patient's oral health. Detailed monographs cover drugs that dental professionals prescribe. Examples of prescription writing are included.

A bonus CD-ROM contains all the drug monographs in searchable format, plus printable drug monographs for inclusion in patient charts; full-color photographs of adverse drug effects and selected oral conditions; and information on medical management of pain and odontogenic infections.
