The Sanford "Gilbert" Guide:
As a family practice resident, I have found Sanford guide indispensible since my very first student wards rotation. Yes, it does take some getting used to, but if you take the time to explore its options and organization you will find it the best antimicrobial guide around. The only two books I carry every single day in my pocket are Sanford guide and Tarascon Pharmacopeia.

Excellent guide, somewhat difficult to get used to:
The Sanford Guide is a well-known pocket guide that every medical professional should have, from third year medical students on up. It is concise and easy to carry around. My only complaint is that its use is not entirely intuitive and takes time to get used to. It updates yearly so it's guaranteed to be current, but that also means you must buy a new one yearly. It is too bad you cannot order the protective plastic cover with it via Amazon.
