I personally think this is an excellent idea. It is my opinion that many physicians really aren't very educated on some of the medications they prescribe. I say this because I have had a few bad experiences with prescribed medications. It is very important to me and probably most patients that the doctors perscribing the medications know what they are talking about. Now that there is a place for clinicians to access information about specific drugs, I sure hope they take the time to use this free resource.
