Philippine Pharmaceutical Directory (PPD)

Prescribing Information at Every Doctor’s Fingertip

Philippine Pharmaceutical Directory (PPD) is a comprehensive listing of pharmaceutical drugs available in the Philippines.

Medical practitioners will find this reference an essential tool for their daily clinical and hospital practice. It is a rich source of information on drugs, its indication, dosage, contraindication, precaution, side effects, drug interactions, forms, packaging, and price.

Aside from drug information, the PPD also contains factual information that is useful in everyday clinic practice.

Among these are a chart on drug interactions, measurement conversion tables and a list of antidotes.

The PPD also lists the directories of major hospitals and medical associations. Newly launched products are listed in the New Products section. Annually reviewed by a competent and highly technical editorial staff, PPD information is accurate and up-to-date.

The PPD is presented in an innovative design that provides ease of use and rapid searching for the doctor. Alphabetically arranged, multi-colored tabs separate the therapeutic classifications from one another making it convenient for the user to find specific therapeutic classes. An index of drug names is found at the start of each section thus saving the doctor time when searching for a brand or generic name.
