Recognise the medication. Understand the patient. Anticipate the risk.
The Pocket Medic Drug Reference Book has been designed specifically for UK pre-hospital clinicians, ambulance staff, event medics, first aid providers, students and healthcare professionals.
This comprehensive digital reference guide contains 100 of the most commonly encountered medications found in patients' homes and care settings.

Each medication page includes:
- Drug class
- Common brand names
- What the medication tells you about the patient
- Clinical significance
- Red flags
- Common side effects
- Assessment considerations
- Patient advice
- Key pre-hospital considerations
- Associated medical conditions
