Modern healthcare requires clinicians to navigate through complex drug treatments. This review offers an overview of sources of drug information which can be used for general medication prescription and for challenging patient populations. Key considerations for pregnant or breastfeeding patients, those with renal impairment, and those with liver dysfunction are discussed. We also touch on adverse drug reactions and drug interactions. Finally, information about services from independent regional drug information centers, that can be used by clinicians, are provided.
