The Dentist's Drug And Prescription Guide Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
A Critical Resource with Information You Won't Find Anywhere Else. Dentists of all specialties prescribe drugs for their patients, from pain medications to sedatives to antibiotics, and know all too well that making an evidenced-based decision on which drug to prescribe is more than just looking up a drug on the computer or PDA and requires more comprehensive consideration than the current drug reference books offer. For example, should an antibiotic be prescribed for implant placement or for sinus augmentation procedures? If so, what antibiotic is recommended (backed up with references), when should it be started, and for how long? Which is the antibiotic of choice for an odontogenic infection and how do you know if that antibiotic is working? Improve Your Decision Making with this Essential Guide. The Dentist’s Drug and Prescription Guide is the only book to offer comprehensive coverage of this topic and has quickly become the go-to reference for dental students, general dentists, periodontists, oral surgeons, dental hygienists.

This book is awesome, and worth every red cent. It presents very practical and useful clinical information in an easy to read question and answer format. While it provides sample prescriptions, it also help you to learn to formulate them on your own. It weeds out all the extraneous drugs that are not important and focuses on most used and encountered drugs in dentistry. Very dental specific. This is a must buy for every dental student and new graduate!
Good book, very helpful when refreshing your memory or learning something new. However, spelling errors abound in this book. They even confuse bacteriocidal and bacteriostatic at one point in this book. Error like this need to be fixed. 4 stats because it is very helpful.
