What types of pharm?

Students NCLEX

Published

I am going to take NCLEX in about 8 weeks and am starting on my plan for studying. Pharm questions are the worst types of questions for me! What pharm should I focus on the most, from those of you who have taken the test? I am doing practice ATI questions and it seems that Digoxin and Lithium come up frequently, so I will focus on those. I would think antibiotics, NSAIDs, Aspirin, Synthroid and beta blockers would probably be good areas to focus on. What else am I missing? Thanks in advance!

This is going to sound strange to some. Took exam few days ago. Was the easiest exam thus far. It was majority SATA and Delegation/Priority.

I felt like I was breezing through then 4th hour came my weakness math questions multiple times. Next PHARM. I have never seen or heard of these drugs- majority. Of course I knew coumadin, heparin, beta-blockers(various),
