From Aspirin and Botox to a breakthrough cancer treatment, the Top Meds for 2012 are scrutinized over at least 18 pages each and served up in Dr. Rybacki’s uniquely balanced style, along with possible side effects, cautions and herbal and prescription interactions that could save your life.

This year, you’ll find 11 profiles of Top Meds for heart disease, diabetes, blood clots, preventing heart attacks and much more – packing 45 categories of information for each of 236 drug brands. The Companion web site also helps you keep informed about important news, breaking research and a bonus newsletter for people who buy the book. See why the new design, easy to read print and detail that makes this Guide the Essential Guide for your home. This book has been a labor of love and medicine since my first involvement in 1993, my transition to first author, then sole author, then the death of Dr. Long, my own heart attack in 2005 and now the rebirth of the Essential Guide to Prescription Drugs (EGPD) in 2012. Great depth and detail has always been the hallmark of the EGPD (for example, this book has literally 24 pages on aspirin), and now I've added new design, pictures, larger type and important Do's and Don'ts to help keep you and your family safe and even key Questions to ask your doctor BEFORE you start a medicine!
