Worth the Buy

This book goes over the basics, and without all of the wordy, boring information that other pharmacology texts have. I was searching for some time for a book that did not bore me to tears with needless information, and this was it. In fact, I used it more than the regular nightmare text we were assigned to read. Get it, even a used one, and learn those meds!

What A Relief!!

I took pharmacology two semesters ago, and it was a complete nightmare because the professor chose a complicated text that has useless information. Now, I have to play catch-up on my own. I searched this site for a few days, and came across this. This is so what I needed. Now, rather than memorize, I UNDERSTAND!! I would advise any nursing student to have this one as an alternate support book to understand medication in a no nonsense way!!
