Safe Medicine for Sober People by Jeffrey Weisberg, M.D., is a guide for the millions of people in recovery from addiction---and their medical providers---on which medicines are safe to take, from a sober viewpoint, and which are risky. Very specific medications are singled out according to their potential for triggering relapse.
Jeffrey Weisberg, M.D. was recently an executive vice president for Continuum Health Partners, Inc. He is cofounder of DOCS, a chain of urgent care medical centers.
Gene Hawes was coauthor with Dr. Weisberg on Rx for Recovery: The Medical and Health Guide for Alcoholics, Addicts, and Their Families. His recent books include Addiction-Free: How to Help an Alcoholic or Addict Get Started on Recovery (with Anderson Hawes).
