Inborn Errors of Metabolism Resource

For years, the little yellow book “Vademecum Metabolicum” has been the go to quick reference for people invovled in the care of children with inborn errors of metabolism. It is concise and well organised into sections according to clinical presentation and disease categories.

This book is no longer in publication, although you may be able to find old copies on amazon or bookdepository.

However, it is now available as an application, and online.
