ATI Pharmacology

Published

So at my school which is Concorde Career College We are taking our Pharm 1 class online ok no problem there but the teacher that we have we have a male and a female instructor but neither of them teach us anything We have to be taught from ATI-Testing Pharmacology and Its not bad just wish my teachers would at least show us how to do the dosage calculations instead of being on there phones

Try looking for a book called "Math for Meds". Know the ins & outs of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems since almost all drugs affect them. Get a good drug book such as Davis's or Mosby's or find an app. There are several mnemonics that can help as well, which can be found all throughout this website. Try making note cards of drugs which include the drug class, purpose, action, side effects and life-threatening conditions, potential interacting drugs & foods & herbs, what labs to watch, and what to teach the patient. This may sound like a lot but it helps and if I can do it I'm sure you can. Start with these common drugs:
