Reviews for Davis’s Drug Guide for Nurses, 14th Edition: “I’m a BSN student,
and this book has been an excellent resource. When my instructors ask me
questions about medications, I know I will be able to answer any questions
they have with this book… This was the book my toughest clinical instructor
recommended to me, and my classmates who have other drug manuals wish they had
this one.” – Honor F., Nursing Student “As a student nurse, I spend more time
with this book than I do with my family. Easy to read, good layout,
informative, to the point. It was required by my program and I have found it
to be a wonderful resource.” – Jen S., Nursing Student “I am able to write
nursing plans, understand disease process, and proper administration of drugs
all because of this one book.” – Kia S. “Simply put, the best drug guide out
