Editorial Review:
Large type and uncluttered design provide quick access to pertinent information immediately. Organized into three parts, this guide provides quick access to essential and easy-to-use information required by CCRNs, CENs and CCNPs. Part 1 is a basic overview of information relating to common conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory disorders, and provides guidelines for pharmacologic management. Part 2 lists drug monographs in alpha-organized format and focuses on critical care "Need to Know" facts. Part 3 provides you with a unique compendium of information and critical care resources presented in appendices format.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Lippincott's Critical Care Drug Guide
I really like this guide because it gives you the generic name first. then what it's indications for use are and the expected outcomes or theraputic effects. And in a different colored box it gives you the contraindications and cautions. Basically, right on the first page it gives you the most important facts first and then goes on from there.
Rating: - Great compatibility lists!
I leave my copy in our CCU. It's the best resource we have for IV med compatibilities -- boasting nice long lists for most of our commonly used drips. Solid dosing information, some tables, etc. My favorite for IV meds (ePocrates & Infusicalc/Palm user too).
Rating: - A good quick reference for many IV drugs!
I am new to Critical Care and wanted a book to help with the new IV drugs I would see especially. This book is a great addition to a general drug book. I includes more IV information than a general drug book. A few of the dosage recommendations are different than what my facility uses which is a little confusing. But overall, I use this book most days!
Rating: - Even with my Palm!!!
I use my palm all the time.. I love Epocrates for its ease of use. But for indepth info on drugs we use day and day it..it cannot be beat!!
Rating: - This is the most used IV drug book on our unit
This is the most used IV drug book on our unit. The drugs are listed alphabetically, therefore easy to find when you are in a hurry. The best feature is the compatability list for each drug. Some titratable meds have easy to read tables, and there are tables of drug effect onset, peak, halflife, etc.
