My purpose with Prescription Drug Problems and the materials we will be creating is to give patients, their friends and caregivers the information they need to make informed and responsible decisions about the taking of prescription medications.  Although all information about side effects and warnings is available it is not always easy to find nor is it usually written or presented in a way the is clear and understandable to regular, non-medically trained people. 

The first two booklets have been completed.  The prescription drug data has been compiled from reliable Internet sources such as the National Library of Medicine, the FDA's Medwatch web site, WebMD and the DailyMed government web site. 

Here are the first booklets.  Now available at major outlets such as Amazon, Apple, Barnes and Noble.  You can also purchase these books at  http://Smashwords.com.

What others are saying about these booklets

I down loaded both of these. They are excellent. I like your introduction. I especially found the one on addictive drugs very informative, even after all the research I've done. My immediate reaction after reading about 6 or so of the drugs was, Wow!! Serious bad meds! It makes me want to wear a special medical bracelet that says DON't give me any painkillers or sedatives etc.

Since I've taken care of my mom in the hospital I think having booklets like these could help a lot of people. I love how simple the explanations are.

I think you have done a great service with your books.  How are you getting the word out?  The cautions you give are so important - particularly with this aging population where we are given more and more medicinal options for our "health".
