PDR for Herbal Medicines
(Medical Economics Company, 1998)
PDR for Herbal Medicines is exactly what you'd expect from the company that for 54 years has published Physician's Desk Reference—the authoritative guide to prescription drug information. Like its sister publication, PDR for Herbal Medicines is an exhaustive compilation of research findings, contraindications, pharmacology, usage and dosage guidelines, all presented in the format of a standard U.S. product label. Much of the clinical evidence cited for more than 600 herbs is gleaned from the German Commission E, a respected government herbal watchdog agency. The remaining monographs, many concerning hard-to-find botanicals, are based on a literature review completed especially for the new publication. Simply put, the PDR for Herbal Medicine is a must-have for any well-informed retailer.
