It gives a ton of information about each medication. I prefer this source to any other pharmacology book or reference book/app. It is easy to find specific information and get to the point, but if I'm feeling more ambitious of need more information to understand the drug it gives you that as well. This book was on the recommended list for my nursing program, and I am so glad I bought it. It was extremely helpful as a reference, learning tool, and use in practice. The medications are organized by generic name, and for each you get the pronunciation, brand names, therapeutic and pharmacologic class, indications, actions (on the detailed physiological level), therapeutic effects (prevents seizure, increases hormone realize, decreases pain), absorption, distribution, metabolism half life, contraindications, adverse reactions, interactions, routes/dosages/administration, relevant nursing assessment, lab considerations, potential nursing diagnosis, patient teaching, and desired outcomes. All of this information is nicely organized so that you can ignore the fluff and get to the point, and have all those details handy. Any life threatening considerations are in red, the most common side effects are underlined. The only thing I don't like about this book is that it can sometimes take a while to find meds. While it is all alphabetical, major drug classes are all listed together. This is helpful once you get there but you may look up a drug alphabetically, and then be referred to "see h2 blockers" for example. Sometimes its easier to use the index, sometimes you can just flip to it. There are also a lot of meds listed as uncommon in a separate section which you end up having to flip to. There are lots of appendices and extra info which I have not used. This book is really not expensive, and is a great tool for reference and learning. Review: Great book, great buy! - I brought this drug guide with me everyday to clinicals in nursing school. When my professor would tell me that I'm doing a med pass, I felt confident knowing that I had this book with me. Before we were allowed to pass the med to the patient, our instructor would ask us five questions. What is this drug for? Why is the patient on this drug? What are the common side effects? What labs does the drug affect? and How will vital signs be affected? --- Thanks to this book, I was able to quickly review the med, and thoroughly answer my instructor's and the patient's questions. When I was not passing meds, I would leave the book in the nurses station until the end of the day. I was surprised at how many of the nurses employed at the hospital picked it up to double check a drug. Plus it's an older edition so it saved me a-lot of money! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,486,845 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #83 in Pharmaceutical Drug Guides #140 in Nursing Pharmacology (Books) #171 in Pharmacology (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (585) | | Dimensions | 5.5 x 1.5 x 8.5 inches | | Edition | Thirteenth | | ISBN-10 | 0803628331 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0803628335 | | Item Weight | 2.13 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 1520 pages | | Publication date | June 6, 2012 | | Publisher | F.A.

It was perfect for in class use as well as clinical use for nursing school. It truly is one of the most trusted names in drug guides (my grandmother still has her Davis's guide from when she was a practicing nurse.) However, in regards to actually purchasing the book was a completely different situation. I have Amazon Prime, so I purchased the book that was Prime eligible. Mine happened to be sold by Amazon. I thought "this is great, I have Prime so I'll get it here in about 3 days." WRONG. Just because they say "2 day shipping" DOES NOT mean that you will get it any sooner...especially if they decide to wait 12 days before they ship it out!! All of my other books (10 books total) came within 3-4 days of purchase. But this was a nightmare, especially since I needed it right away. If I would have known that it would take Amazon 2 weeks to get my "Prime eligible" book to me, I would have paid a private seller more to get it to me in an appropriate time frame. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/1582074-daviss-drug-guide-for-nurses-resource-kit-cd-rom](https://www.desertcart.es/products/1582074-daviss-drug-guide-for-nurses-resource-kit-cd-rom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
