Based on a national survey of pharmacists and members of APhA, the products are rated on a 10-point scale for effectiveness, speed of relief, ease of use and frequency of recommendation. What Do I Take? also includes a "Pharmacists Say..." section, which contains useful advice about the ailment and recommended medication; a "When to See a Doctor" section identifying important warning signs; an annotated reference index and a glossary of active ingredients. The American Pharmaceutical Association (APhA) is the national professional society of pharmacistsand is the largest such organization with 48,000 members. APhA publishes American Pharmacy, Pharmacy Todayand the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences. Janice Fudyma is cofounder of the Bernhardt Fudyma Design Group,which has won numerous national graphic design awards.
