ED pharmacology course?

[Kristy]

So, I've been out of the nursing game for awhile. I'm now working in an ED, and I've realized I've forgotten most of what I knew about medications. I'm looking stuff up and learning as I go, but I'm tired of the piecemeal approach. Have you guys taken any online courses that focus on medications most often used in the ED?

Medications used in an ED? That is a very very large variety of meds. I suggest rereading a pharm book.
