Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Pharmacology
An excellent quick review. This book is stream lined, easy to comprehend and fairly good with the number of drugs covered. It should be coupled with a more comprehensive text.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Med. student
I used this book to prepare for my Pharmacology exam in university,it's a great book, my pharmacology course based on this book so it was very helpful.Afcourse it's not enough,for a med.student who is looking for pharmokinetic's,that's why i bought 2 books in one time: Lippincott's "Pharmacology 3th" and Katzung "Clinical pharmacology".



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good book, simple view of pharmacology
Lots of diagrams, aids in understanding the pharmacological implications of physiological pathways, a must have for any med student
