Common meds for a gyno ward...

Published

Hi Ladies!

I am a student, and have just got my very first clinical placement on a gynaecology ward, also has uro-gynaecology, gynae-oncology and breast surgery pts, and as this prac is mainly on med administration (non parenteral), are there certain medications that are most common? Would you mind giving me a list so I can research please?

Any help in my preparation would be greatly appreciated!!
