 Don't show up for your shift without it. December 25, 2009

10+ years out of training and still use it many times per shift.
Lean mean classic.
Faster info access than all the gimmicky PDA toys. And drop-proof.
In case of disgruntled patient, will stop a [small] bullet.

The Best thing to have in my pocket for many years running. As an emergency physician it is the one and only thing I always carry in my pocket, PDA's can get low on battery and honestly be unreliable.
Still Good after all these years May 13, 2010

I used this from 1993 until 1999. Then got out of the habit of using it for 11 years til now (2010).
It has gotten twice as thick as before, lol! But still very useful & small, lean & mean as another reviewer said.
I use a iTouch with Lexidrugs on it, if I need more detail (adverse reactions & percentages, etc. for more unusual drugs like infliximab, & such).
CONS:
1. needs a plastic cover, gets destroyed too easily. I would pay an extra buck for this. I had to make one of my own (cut a spare larger plastic cover down & heat sealed the edges).
2. the pages need just a bit bigger margins to write in (my old Tarascons, I wrote notes in tiny handwriting on the margin of the page, but now that margin is gone. Give me another 3-4 mm of margin to write a note in).

Deluxe lab-coat editions usually come with a plastic book cover protector. No protector this time. Otherwise, book was in excellent condition.

Could not have gotten through med school or internship without this one. Still have a sentimental attachment to the series, and appreciate their sense of humor more.
