This quick, easy-to-use pharmaceutical reference provides the correct spelling and capitalization of drug names, their primary designated uses, and usual methods of administration (for example, capsule, IV, cream). New entries have been added to the 20,000 in the last edition. This guide features the AMA- and AAMT-style standards, showing initial caps and unusual internal caps on all brand names. It provides alphabetical listings of experimental, orphan and chemotherapy drugs, and drug regimens with other drugs. It also includes drugs recently discontinued by the manufacturer or withdrawn from the market by the FDA, which may still appear in physician dictation. British and international spellings of generics are cross-referenced to the preferred US name and to each other. A useful "sound-alike" appendix helps prevent typing the wrong drug name when it is not dicatated clearly, or when two drugs have similar pronunciations. A complete abbreviation appendix features commonly-used prescribing abbreviations with correct punctuation, such as b.i.d. (twice daily) and p.o. (by mouth). Another appendix gives the investigational codes (assigned to drugs before they are named) cross-referenced to their subsequent generic names.
