Matrindale: The Complete Drug Reference, 36th Edition
The aim of Martindale is to provide healthcare professionals with unbiased evaluated information on drugs and medicines used throughout the world. It therefore has to develop as the body of knowledge on existing drugs grows, new drugs emerge, new preparations are launched, and old preparations are abandoned, reformulated, or redefined. It also has to reflect the changing needs of those practising pharmacy and medicine. We try to ensure that each new edition continues to meet all these needs. In order to provide more up-to-date information the interval between the publication of the printed versions of Martindale has been reduced over successive editions and the book is now produced about every 2 years. For those who require even more up-to-date information from Martindale there are various electronic versions, sections of which are updated more frequently. The year 2008 saw the publication of the third Spanish edition of Martindale,
the translation having again been undertaken by our colleagues at Grupo Ars XXI, and also saw the appearance of the first edition of a Chinese language version of Martindale. Martindale has been continuously expanded since it was first published in 1883, and to present all the extra information this edition of Martindale maintains the recent return to a two-volume publication. The first volume contains this preface and the drug monographs, and the second holds the proprietary preparations and the index, as well as manufacturers’ contact information.
