Drugs are listed alphabetically by generic name and indexed by both generic and trade name, enabling easy lookup. The guide also offers clinical information for hundreds of drugs, including adverse reactions, interactions, side effects and impact on lab results.

Appendix references include US Schedules of Controlled Substances, FDA Pregnancy Information, Prescription Combination Drugs, and Herbal and Dietary Supplement Table. Combine this all with detailed administration guidance, plus dosage information across the lifespan, and you have an all-in-one guide to best practices in medication delivery.
