I use Saunders Pharmaceutical Word
Book and have for years. I usually only buy one however every 2 or 3 years as I do use a lot of medication web sites also.
I agree, don't like the QLDB but I do like Saunders Pharmaceutical Word Book
That is one book I purchase yearly.
I'm thinking about buying Saunders Pharmaceutical Word Book 2007 on CD/ROM...sm..
I've never bought a drug book on CD/ROM but I'd like to try it. I'm guessing it would be quicker than looking everything up in a book. I'm trying to get away from looking things up online because everytime I stop and look something up online I end up checking email, ebay, all the boards, etc., and not focusing on my work. They're so much temptation on the internet!
I've bought one book (QLDB) back in 2000 so I need an update! They sell the Saunders Drake & Drake Pharmaceutical Word Book on CD/ROM and in the book form as a package or you can buy them separately. I'm wondering why someone would buy both.
Any advice before I buy would be appreciated.

What about Saunders drug book on CD?
I have always preferred Saunders to Quick Look, and they have just released their first version on CD. Has anyone tried it yet? I'd like to get it.
I vote for Saunders, have been using it for years (nm)

There is a fix for Saunders 2007 Electronic version....sm
available. It helped to speed it up a great deal. I have both Saudners and QL but for some reason my QL stopped working. I find that the Saudners "sound-a-like" search has been very useful. It initially was very slow but there is an update out there that fixes it and improves the speed dramatically. I cannot recall where I got the info on the fix from but I'm sure if you visit www.spwb.com you may find it there or you can email the authors and get the update.
I have the 2007 Saunders CD and I think it's kind of slow. Hoping the QL is better this year tha
