Drug information website-any suggestions?

Published

Specializes in LDRP.

I am looking for a good drug information website, geared for nurses (or health professionals in general). I've found several, but they are all patient oriented, which is not what i want.

Thanks in advance!

It is kind of a slow site though. It has nursing teaching and stuff like that too.

This is a pretty good resource:

When I've googled various drugs, it seems to me that the site

http://www.rxlist.com came up with some health-care professional related information--in their monographs. Sometimes if you restrict your search to .edu sites you can get some good information that is put up on med school or pharm school sites.

don't know if you own a PDA or not, but I have one and I have downloaded EpocratesRx to it.... I can't remember the site, but if you google it, you'll find it. I think it's a great resource, and so much easier to carry around than my drug book!
