Review quote

"In 2008 and 2014 we reviewed the pocket edition of this major Reference Book, and were impressed...The 'big' Stockley's remains 'the' famous reference work that provides concise and rather complete information on clinically relevant drug-drug interactions (DDIs). It provides health care professionals with practical information on medicines interactions and their management...Stockley's is still indispensable for the clinical pharmacist. It is a very reliable publication which is kept up to date." J.W.F. van Mil, International Journal of Clinical Pharmacy. "This incredibly detailed text is a must have for toxicologists who spend much time reviewing the known and potential effect of drugs when detected together...

...Like other Pharmaceutical Press publications (eg Clarke's Analysis of Drugs and Poisons) this quality publication provides an evidence based assessment of drugs and their interactions. The monographs are methodically set out providing the relevant clinical evidence of the drugs interaction, the mechanism, the significance of the findings as well as the management of clinical symptoms. All of the monographs are referenced with up to date reviews on available literature...

...contains in-depth yet concise monographs in an easy-to-read format and provides comprehensive details of the clinical evidence for the interactions under discussion, an assessment of their clinical importance, and clear guidance on managing the interaction in practice. The coverage of drugs is impressive, including drugs that are used around the world not just from a national jurisdiction...

...I can recommend this text for all toxicologists as it provides an authoritative and evidence based approach to documented drug interactions - an approach we should always maintain when interpreting our casework."
