Dear friends,
It is a matter of
pride and privilege to write a message for IAP Pediatric Drug Formulary, the
proud project of IAP CMIC. The IAP Drug Formulary has become extremely popular
over the years. Pediatricians and all those caring for neonates, children and
adolescents in India and abroad vouch for its authenticity as it has strived to
maintain international standards. More than 20000 users have benefited from the
quarterly web updates and this year the users will have 4 further web updates
to look forward to. This continues to be the only Drug Formulary in the world
that provides quarterly web updates free of cost to its users. The drug
formulary has bought laurels name and fame not only to CMIC but for the entire
IAP.
The IAP Drug
Formulary 2019, the 'Pocket Dose Book of Medicines for Children and
Adolescents' and the Version 2.0 of the IAP DF mobile app and the desktop
version that was launched this year has been well received by pediatricians as
it empowers them to up-to-date at all times with pediatric therapeutics at the
click of a button.
I take this
opportunity to congratulate Dr. Jeeson C Unni, Editor in Chief of
this prestigious publication of IAP, and IAP CMIC for their dedication in
executing the project and all sub-specialty chapters for contributing to the
success of the Formulary.
I wish all the web
updates for 2021, its online version, the recently updated mobile apps and
all publications of the IAP Drug Formulary - a resounding success.
Regards and wishes
Dr Piyush Gupta,
IAP President 2021
