Saunder's have a comprehensive coverage on pharmacology, (around 13 chapters) usually, a chapter on pharmacology after a system. My question is, is the pharmacology covered in saunder's enough for the nclex-rn?

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

Oh yes.

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

i agree to that..yes, saunders book and CD have enough coverage of all drugs. classify them and know thier basic side effects and adverse effect generally..

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

ok thanks

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

I'm planning to get the Saunder's comprehensive review. Does it matter if I get the old or new edition?

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

Hi yes it does have enough info in saunders..for RN 4th edition would be better

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

Most definitely only use the 4th edition. The older edition does not have any of the newer format questions.

And even though the pages in the book may look the same, there are enough subtle differences that have been made to it to make it different and not just the same book with a new cover.

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

Yes it does. All the Medications given in my test can found in Saunders. I added an extra bonus by reveiwing commonly seen T.V advertised Medications but those didn't show up on my test. Just in case though you should reveiw those as well, since those are considered a hot item on the test claimed by other people who've taken it.

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

i agree with LVdreamer, all the meds that came out of my test too were found in Saunders. while studying the meds section of the saunders book i wrote the ones i felt that were most likely going to come out on a sheet of long bond paper, then studied it again the last 3 days before my exam..

Re: Saunder's comprehensive review

Where can I get a new edition of Saunder's. I think I have an old vision.
