Sanford ID GuideSeptember 14, 2009 Stephanie Cazares(Greenbelt, MD) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Larger format much easier to read, yet still pocket size. Very reliable and up to date. Addresses lyme disease, STD's , MRSA. Gives alternatives for patients with allergies. I've been using this for 20 years and still appreciate its concise, reliable information. Even though the web has emerged, I still like having a print version at my fingertips.

Difficult to useJuly 14, 2009 John D. Uelk 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
It was very hard to look things up in this book. Not very helpful in the ED. Would recommend EMRA's antibiotic guide instead.

I have used this little gem for fifteen + years. It is widely, almost universally, accepted among doctors as reliable, quick, and complete. Any practicing physician who prescribes antibiotics and treats a variety of infectious diseases should have a current copy of Sanford's.

Which antibiotic for yersinia diarrhea? for a diabetic with cellulitis? And a non-diabetic with cellulitis? I showed up my chief with this book when I was a medical student. Don't let people get the wrong drugs. Get this. This book is faster than your epocrates and it doesn't require charging at the end of the day.
Yes - you've memorized the answers for the boards, but please don't use those answers to actually treat patients... use the CURRENT guidelines found here in this book.
Otherwise, you'll become one of those outdated old malpracticing doctors who hasn't learned anything new since the dinosaurs roamed the earth long before the discovery of DNA. Please don't be like them. Stay current. Buy this book every year (or so) and use it lovingly.
