5.0 out of 5 stars PharmPhlash, July 21, 2009

These flash cards saved me so much time and work in nursing school. I could pick out the meds I needed, put the cards in my pocket and I had an easy reference for the drugs I was giving that day. Now that I'm working in the hospital I do the same thing. I plan to purchase the updates as they become available. Knowing your drugs is one your most important jobs. PharmPhlash is a valuable tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars So much more assessable than a drug book, November 1, 2008

This review is from: Pharm Phlash!: Pharmacology Flash Cards (Cards)

I am a second year nursing student, enrolled in a RN program which to say the very least is very challenging. Pharm Phlash is such a helpful tool that I use during my clinical rotations. The information is easy to read and understand. The pictures really help you remember the area of the body the drug is targeted for. Pharm Phlash is much quicker than using a traditional drug reference book. I will continue to use Pharm Phlash after I graduate. I would suggest every nursing student invest in Pharm Phlash and instructors and educational instutions should put Pharm Phlash on their "recommended book" lists. Thanks for publishing such a helpful tool!!!!!!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU ARE A MEDICAL STUDENT!!!!!!!!!, February 19, 2009

DO NOT BUY IF YOU ARE A MEDICAL STUDENT!!!!!!!!!!! Okay, here's the deal. This product advertises as a review for the USMLE, it's NOT! It is a review for nursing students. I'm sure its great for that, but it is missing about 40%-50% of the drugs medical students studying for the USMLE step 1 need to know. I bought this with the impression that it would help me with my pharmacology class and the USMLE and instead it's a complete waste of time and money for me. I hope this helps others not make this same mistake.
