Forget the flashcards...they are all terrible. Get Medscape, Epocrates...Davis Drug guide etc...make your own flashcards. ..you can tailor them to how your mind works...all of school is whittling down the info to the most basic essentials...the rest (as in 99% of all nursing textbooks including pharm) is fluff that you will never use..

For flashcards check these out, a member on here shared the flashcards they made when they did Pharm. https://allnurses.com/nursing-student-assistance/pharmacology-flashcards-595483.html I have already printed these out to use in anticipation of my pharm class this semester. A lot of members here have found them to be helpful

One of our first semester supplemental textbooks is Electrolytes Made Incredibly Easy and I bought Pharmacology Made Incredibly Easy on EBAY for $20 last semester in Pharm. I used it for the tougher chapters. Helped simplify things. Pharmacology wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Make your own cards that work for you. I read my notes over and over and I got an A and I didn't use flashcards. Don't freak yourself out before you start.

Same here! They were awesome. Also, try Quizlet for self created flash cards.
