MONTVALE, N.J., June 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- PDR Network today announced the launch of the PDR Consumer Book imprint and its first title, PDR Consumer Guide to Prescription Drugs - a new consumer-focused publication providing critical prescription drug information in an easy-to-understand, reader-friendly format. This new title details key aspects of FDA-approved prescription drug information allowing consumers to "know what their doctor knows" about their medications, providing the tools they need to take a more active role in their health.

The Guide also includes a foreword by New York Times' best-selling author and respected medical expert, Dr. Dean Ornish, Founder and President of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute and Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. This trade paperback edition is a new release from the publishers of the Physicians' Desk Reference (PDR®) - the most highly trusted drug information reference available, relied on by healthcare professionals for more than 65 years.
