Responding to Symptoms textbook?

[nick_]

I have recently bought "Symptoms in the Pharmacy: A Guide to the Management of Common Illness" as recommended by my pre-reg tutor. I have had a quick flick through and it seems thorough and straight to the point. Would this be all I need for responding to symptoms? I have heard about "Community Pharmacy: Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment" but heard it has a lot of detail and deviates a lot - and I can't really afford to purchase more books than I need at the moment! Thanks.

Type "OTC guide wikispaces" in google and you will be surprised how someone can do a free service for people like you (pre-regs) to help pass the exam

The cppe minor ailment pack is really good too and free!

A bit early, but there is nothing that replaces lots of experience

Symptoms in the pharmacy looks like the best book, what do people think

i've got Community Pharmacy: Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment by Rutter and honestly, its the book i've used most throughout uni and now on my pre-reg.
it does have a bit of detail, but nothing that should put you off. definitely would recommend
