Please help me:typing

buy a pharm book. The one i have sucks and it has explained every single one of these drugs. Are you taking online? I think you should be very happy your instructor is telling you what to know! LOL! we have 7-8 ch. tests and do not get a study guide, so consider yourself very lucky!!

you can purchase MedDeck, its a box of drugs that tells the indication, S/E, contraindictions and so on. Its pricey, but I have like it so far. Good luck.

Specializes in med/surg, telemetry, IV therapy, mgmt.

see the weblinks on this sticky thread: https://allnurses.com/forums/f205/pharmacology-help-140434.html - pharmacology help!
