Library Grand Rounds

Drug Information Resources for Clinicians
March 25, 1999

The March Library Grand Rounds focused on authoritative sources of drug information for clinicians.

David Nierenberg, M.D., Edward Tulloh Krumm Professor of Medicine and Pharmacology/Toxicology, Chairman of the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee, and Chief of the Division of Clinical Pharmacology, presented Clinical Pharmacology Online. Librarians from Dartmouth's Biomedical Libraries demonstrated additional drug information resources.

Clinical Pharmacology Online provides timely, concise drug information for medical professionals, with "full" monographs describing the most common and classic medications in clinical practice as well as "mini" monographs including investigational, less common, combination, nutraceutical and nutritional products. Clinical Pharmacology Online is sponsored by the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center's Department of Clinical Computing and the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee. It is licensed for DHMC, The Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic, The Dartmouth-Hitchcock Alliance, and Dartmouth Medical School faculty and students.
