 Not for nurses July 24, 2008
I didn't really like this book, the book was just to wordy, get the Davis Drug Guide for good general information. this book is a waste of money for those not going into pharmachology
 It's OK June 21, 2008
I don't find this to be the best text book I've read. It was required for the class. I plan to by the Nursing Pharmacology Made Incredibly Easy book. I expect it will be more useful.

This book has a great way of explaining pharmocologoy and gives plenty of practice problems (along with answers to check yourself).

My instructor acutally wrote her own book and used this book alongside her notes. It was very useful for reference. I got an "A" out of the pharmacology class.

This is a wonderful text. It is an easy and engaging read. It is well organized and applicable. It is one nursing book I don't like to put down. Full of knowledge and references for more info.
