From the reviews of the previous edition:
Jul-2011, IPU Review, Noel Stenson, MPSI.
"The Pocket version is highly portable compared to its big brother tome. It is probably best suited to situations where you find yourself away from the safety net of your dispensary Drug Information software and the main Stockley texts...it is a perfect companion to the BNF."
Annals of Pharmacotherapy
‘The text provides valuable information on severity and management of drug interactions. The size of the text makes it very portable...'
Doody Enterprises, Inc.
‘…a quick, easy, accurate pocket resource for significant drug interactions…Weighted numerical score: 90 – 4 Stars!'
'No real competition. Excellent book, I use it regularly, recommend it to Yr2 students and it will be a recommended text for Yr1 from next academic year. I have also recommended it to a number of practising pharmacists and pre-reg students at educational events, all have expressed surprise at its modest price and many have said that they will buy a copy... As a locum pharmacist (as well as a lecturer) I find Stockley's invaluable and it is great to know that, wherever I am working I have got access to it, even if the pharmacy hasn't got a copy.'
