Worth The Money - Great for Home or Work!
Safe space and a great reference guide! I don't have a pic, because I'm doing this review in my car.

Love the book, delivery not so much.
Loved how small and “pocket” like this book actually is. It will definitely come in handy during my clinical rotations for nursing school. Only downside, which has to do with delivery, not the actual product, is that it arrived ripped and bent in some areas. It’s a bit disappointing that it wouldn’t be wrapped properly to avoid these issues. It just came in a big box with some paper filling. Was hoping to have it ready by Monday but unfortunately I’ll have to exchange it and hope it doesn’t arrive the same way :(

Fits in the palm of my hand
It’s micro sized! Lol I can’t even read it with my glasses, I’ll probably trade it for something a little more student friendly and with normal font

So small! So cute! So worth it!
I love how cute this pocket drug guide is. It's small which is great for new nurses or even student nurses coming into clinicals to be able to Carry it in your pocket and look up medications. This is totally worth the money.

Good for more than just nurses!
I'm sure that this is an invaluable reference for nurses but also very handy for your average citizen. Detailed information for all manner of drugs and medications, including complications and concerns. It is, indeed, a pocket-sized guide at a mere 3" wide x 5" tall x 1" wide. The font is quite small - good eyes or readers required! Packed full of information!

Prefer Google when working
Google is more quick than a pocket book
