    BeachsideRN replied to roser13's topic in Patient Medications

    Check goodrx.com too they usually have better prices (about $600 for a pack of 2, then you should be able to use the $200 coupon also). That really blows. I guess with auviQ out of the way epi pen is...

    Homeopathy taught in a Pharmacology class?!?!

    BeachsideRN replied to dura.mater's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
