Studying medicine? JCU has recently subscribed to DynaMed Plus, a great resource for all medicine students!

DynaMed Plus is a clinical reference tool providing fast, easy access to the latest evidence-based information in medicine.

Topics covered within DynaMed Plus include specialty content in allergy; cardiology; critical care; dermatology; ear, nose and throat (ENT); emergency medicine; endocrinology; gastroenterology; gynaecology; hematology; infectious diseases; nephrology; neurology; obstetrics; oncology; orthopedics and sports medicine; paediatrics; primary care; psychiatry; pulmonary medicine; rheumatology; surgery; and vascular medicine.

Users can also access concise drug reference information including dosages, therapeutic use, cautions, comparative efficacy, approved and off-label indications, pharmacokinetics, clinical applications, and interactions of medications (including drug-drug, drug-food, drug-ethanol, drug-tobacco, and drug-laboratory).
