We are celebrating the 20th year of the functioning of IAP Drug Formulary this year
Celebrations call for increasing outreach programs to increase visibility of all products of IAP Drug Formulary throughout India and abroad as it the only formulary in the world (adult or pediatric) and definitely the only exclusively pediatric formulary to provide regular quarterly web updates over the last 20 years. -the present Web Update 2025 (1), the 75th Web Edition and the 73nd Web Update of the IAP Drug Formulary. This edition contains addition to 1 new drug monographs and changes in 7 drug monographs.
IAP DF proudly presents, in its 20th year, the addition of an Institutional Login at an inaugural offer, for the 1st 2 years, of Rs 3000/- for 10 yrs. We realised that in many hospitals, RMOs, duty doctors, nursing staff, non pediatric specialists, junior pediatricians and pediatricians need to have a ready reckoner for checking pediatric doses and the institutionallogin to the IAP DF could solve this issue. Kindly make use of this facility and make it known to all staff in the hospital to ensure evidence based pediatric therapeutics,
The user interface of the mobile apps has been improved to make it more user friendly. It is available for iOS (iPhone, iPad) and Android platforms. This facility along with the IAP Drug Formulary 2024 - 6th hard copy edition released at PEDICON 2024 in Kochi, the Online Desktop and PDA version and the Pocket Dose Book of Medicines in Children and Adolescents' (7th edition) have made this formulary a wholesome product.
We offer 1 free mobile app key for all IAP members.
The IAP Drug Formulary Institutional login and all other products of the formulary may be bought either by paying online at our website www.iapdrugformulary.com or by sending a DD in favour of IAP Drug Formulary' payable at Kochi (for Indian buyers only) to our IAP Drug Formulary office at Cochin (address given on purchase or contact us page on the website) - online purchase is preferred.
The Formulary contains information, which, to the best of our knowledge, is accurate and up-to-date. But every practitioner must, as we have always insisted, take individual responsibility for taking all precautions when dispensing and administering drugs to children. We are looking forward to comments and criticism regarding the update.
We are available to answer queries regarding use of medications in children and for any assistance regarding the installation of our app/desktop version, etc.
Wishing all users a Happy New Year and great year of learning.
Yours in academic service
