Information and point-of-care solutions provider Wolters Kluwer Health (WK Health), US, has announced the availability of the new print edition of the Nursing2013 Drug Handbook, the best-selling drug reference for nurses. First published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (LWW) in 1980, the Nursing Drug Handbook claims to be the first drug handbook designed specifically for nurses.
The Nursing2013 Drug Handbook offers nurses the ability to find any drug fact in 15 seconds or less. Nearly 900 drug monographs addressing more than 3,000 generic and brand name drugs are featured. This edition adds 30 new drugs and more than 3,000 changes to clinical information including new Black Box Warnings, dosage information, overdose signs and symptoms, and adverse reactions.
Monographs are consistently formatted for ease-of-use and focus on the practical information that nurses need. A comprehensive collection of pill images – more than 430 – is also included to help nurses confidently identify their patients' medications. The handbook allows nurses to search for desired drugs alphabetically, by pharmacologic class and by therapeutic class.
The Nursing2013 Drug Handbook is available immediately by visiting the LWW eStore at www.LWW.com. It also is available as a mobile application for iPhone, iPad, iTouch, and Android devices as a download on Apple iTunes and Google Play.
