NCLEX Tip of the Day, Superbowl Sunday 2/5

[SkateBetty]

Here are a few of my memory joggers

Agnosia - I don't know what it is (when an object is placed in hand)

Apraxia - My practiced skills are lost (can't carry out a purposeful activity)

Procainamide - For dysrhythmias unresponsive to Lidocaine

Ridaura - Gold, for arthritis (think shiny, aura)

Tessalon - Anti-tussive (sounds like tuss)

Cognex - for Alzheimer's (sounds like cognition)

Calcium Carbonate has the most calcium of oral types

Neupogen - sounds like "generates neutrophils"

Epogen - sounds like "erythropoetein generator"

Flomax - Improves urinary flow with BPH (urine flows)

Dimetane - An antihistimine (Dimetapp)
