TV and Magazine Drugs - What's hot

Published

Specializes in Community & Mental Health, Sp Ed nursing.

I need a little help. I haven't watched commercial tv in about 16 years. Please don't think I'm a snob, I just don't have that much time and when I do, I watch online. Consequently, I don't know what the latest and greatest is for the NCLEX and somehow I don't think these are the commercials one will find on Youtube :D.

Thanks,

You probably will do better by learning the major drug classifications and the classic drug for each category than by trying to figure out which of the new ones will be on the test.

Thanks, and I have done that as best as I can. I'm interested in names that aren't in my NCLEX books just to familarize myself.

Funny you should mention that.....I did a search and I came up with nothing that addressed this topic. However threads on Superbowl commercials, Davis Drug Guide, and commercials for nurse were amusing.
