“…a great resource to any health professional working with IV medications…. The online format adds value as a more comprehensive resource, but the on-hand convenience of the print version is undeniably better for quick reference…. [A] very comprehensive book, written and reviewed by experts in the field of pharmacy and nursing…. The authors have done a wonderful job covering everything.” — ©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, Zina T. Saidi, PharmD (Jeanes Hospital)
