New edition The new, updated edition of the book will include current information (as of November/December 2007) on anti-infective agents: antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, antimycobacterial drugs, and pathogen-specific immune globulin/monoclonal antibody products.

The references will be available in the PDA version, and will be posted on the NelsonsPocketBook.com website.
