BSAVA Small Animal Formulary, Part A: Canine and Feline (BSAVA British Small Animal Veterinary Association)

5 stars, the perfect formulary

excellent book

As always great content and a must have for vets in practice. I was also very disappointed with the move away from spiral binding which is much more user-friendly. I was almost tempted to buy the spiral bound previous edition and would welcome a return to that.

I have had the formulas for the last few years, and it was bad to see that the authors split the contents of the previous book into two books now, one for canine and feline, one for exotics. I just loved the fact that you had everything you needed in one book and I also preferred the spiral bound formula, this one is a paperback. if you wanted to find a drug, you could just leave it open and look at it straight away again, while this paperback version does not stay open without bending it or turning it around. I do realize that there are more and more drugs out there for the different species, but it is still a shame. They also added "drugs" like arnica, which I find useless, this one belonging to a totally different category called herbs, which should not be included here. Please go back to just one good formula for the next edition!

This is an excellent reference for drug doses

Contenutisticamente è inarrivato, anni luce avanti rispetto al prontuario SCIVAC, con le sue doti di concisione, sintesi e praticità anche nel formato. Fortunatamente è stato abbandonato lo scomodo formato ad anelli.
