NCLEX medications

Published

I was just wondering how you are studying for medication questions. There are so many and so many aspects of each to remember. I am using the Saunders book and making flashcards, but it seems so overwhelming.

How are you all getting through this??

Thanks for any input!! :)

Thanks NJNursing. It's quite good. waiting for your two pages following messages:)

I would have attached it, but I can't find where I can upload a .doc file or a way to host it somewhere, so I had to go and re-type it:
