Editorial Reviews
Review
"A must own."
"This is the 11th edition of a core drug reference in the field of maternal health and a worthwhile contribution to the discipline."
"The authors are credible authorities and the proof is the 11th edition."
"the book does what it intends to do -- provide an alphabetized list of drugs and their pregnancy and lactation interactions."
"covers drugs from A-Z that are used in pregnancy. Each drug has a concise summary followed by an in-depth discussion of the studies regarding that drug."
"opted for identifying drugs as low risk or high risk, which is much more clinically applicable."
"remains a core reference and the additions to the drug menu are nice"
?"Trying to critique this book is similar to evaluating a dictionary. It does what it purports to do."

Extensive and complete information about drugs on pregnancy and lactation period. Each drug has a summary beneath the drug's name for a quick review, after that you can read an extensive explanation about studies and case reports concerning to drug. Moreover, the book uses the new system for providing drugs in pregnancy.

Search a drug and it will give you a long list of places it is referenced in the book. But to just be able to go to the drug review, I am still trying to find it.
The pages in the index are not present so finding a page number is not available.
Quick searching is a major drawback of this electronic version.
The book reference is excellent and respected.

Very good reference, but the digital version is terrible. Fully indexed WITHOUT PAGE NUMBERS in the index. Are they kidding? Suppose I want to just go to the main page for a drug without having to search and look through 90 hits? All I need is the page number, which was removed from the index in the digital version. Needs some serious technical work.

Minus 2 stars for missing several drugs from the book and difficult to navigate in the kindle version. Otherwise, the medical content that is there is very good.
