REVIEWS:
From reviews of the previous edition:
'This edition is very easy to read and is a convenient size for easy reference. It is highly recommended as the number of patients taking these products along with prescription and nonprescription medications increases.'
The International Journal of Pharmaceutical Compounding, Volume 6, Issue 33 14th August 2009
'...from a regulatory and research perspective...expanding Stockley's Medicines Interactions into the field of herbal medicines and (food) supplements is an essential step towards a safer use of these products. Because of its breadth in scope and the very careful editing, the book will be an excellent, critical and up-to-date handbook on herb-drug interactions, but will also serve as a source if information about many commonly used herbal medicines and supplements. The book is essential in the fast developing field of 'natural medicines' (or phytotherapy) and I recommend it to anyone involved in the production, prescription and dispensing of such products or in teaching in this field.'
Michael Heinrich, Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 126 (2009) 375 (October)
'This book is an invaluable source of information. It is well structured such that the readers find instantly what they have been looking for. It is also comprehensive and authoritative. This book should be on the shelves of all clinicians who use herbal medicines. It should also be a must for general practitioners who are often confronted with questions about herb-drug interactions without prescribing herbal remedies themselves.'
E Ernst, Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies, December 2009
