Then, I use rxlist.com and drugstore.com quite frequently when I'm not sure of a drug. It will sometimes find a drug with a s/l, and with rxlist.com, you can enter in part of a med and it will list all meds with what you entered in it. For example, if you hear " prox " in a med, enter in *prox for the search and it will bring up all drugs that contain that sequence of letters. For example, the *prox search will bring up Anaprox, Naproxen, and others that I can't think of off the top of my head. Drugstore.com lists drugs in alphabetical order, which also helps. Just a couple sources that I use. HTH, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2002 Report Share Posted June 25, 2002 : Meds always trip me up, too. I guess it's just hearing them over and over that helps me finally get them. > Patient is to recheck with me in three to four weeks regarding blood pressure. She will change out of " Chorazofen or Torazofen " to a Dyazide or a possibility of a combination of a beta-blocker and Dyazide. Under beta blockers, I did find Alti-Doxazosin, Apo-Doxazosin, Apo-Terazosin, Gen-Doxazosin, doxazosin mesylate, Novo-Terazosin, PMS-Terazosin, and terazosin HCl. Could one of these fit? Sorry, not coming up with anything for your last s/l. Pattie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2002 Report Share Posted June 25, 2002 Another book I like to use is the Quick Look Drug Book, except it annoys me that you have to look under the generic every time you want to look up a drug. If you look under the brand name, it tells you to look under the generic. Anyway, sometimes the Drake and Drake doesn't have dosage information like the QLDB. The feature I like best, however, is the cross-reference in the back. You can look up the illness and find out meds that are prescribed for it. That way, if you have a partial s/l, sometimes you can match it up with a drug listed there.
