Today we live in a world which is too big to carry in one's head. Every day we are bombarded with glut of information coming to us from all sides. Social media is further filling all available mind space with a whole lot of mindless trivia. Living under such trying circumstances, having a trustworthy book like IAP Drug Formulary to refer to comes as a great relief. It is the bible we all turn to for confirmation whenever we are left in doubt by our burdened memories.

At a time when diseases are mutating into new unimaginable manifestations and the market is also getting flooded with ever growing variety of drugs, a common repository of knowledge with a self updating mechanism is the need of the hour. Online edition of IAP Drug Formulary and its mobile app fulfill this need with amazing efficiency.

IAP Drug Formulary enjoys a well deserved reputation for being one of the most authentic and extensive Drug Formularies in the world. It has been painstakingly compiled and updated by from time to time by successive editorial teams, which is presently being led by Dr Jeeson C Unni, the Editor-in- Chief. Such effort calls for deep involvement and continuous hard work. I congratulate every person involved in this project for consistently delivering excellence.

I wish all the users of IAP Drug Formulary a fruitful experience.
