With Pharm!!!

Everyone worries about knowing meds, but you most likely know more than you think :nuke:. I believe there are several threads on Pharm. Try using the search engine on this website. This is what I did and it helped TREMENDOUSLY. Good luck to you!

kaplan has all the information about meds that you need to know for the nclex-rn. just study the pharmacy section of the kaplan review book.

I took the nclex and am happy that I didn't spend my time on medications because I had 2 med questions and 3 calculation questions.

Honestly, there is no way a person will be able to remember all s/s, contraindications for all the meds.

I would concentrate more on, delegation, priority, precautions, infection control.

I had a ton of meds on my boards and never once did i open a med book to study for them. i really trusted that what i had seen in prac. exams and it def. did! And if it was a q of side effects..which i think i had maybe one..most were teaching..i chose the gi symptom b/c that is what everyone told me to choose. It's way too hard to learn the meds, even categorizing them wouldn't help me. I would forget what meds fall in that category. I wouldn't stress too much about the meds.
