This review is from: Underground Clinical Vignettes: Pharmacology: Classic Clinical Cases for USMLE Step 1 Review (Paperback)

This is the worst book of the series and is a waste of time. Pharmacology cannot be taught by clinical vignettes and the author himself recognizes this. In the book review section of First Aid, Dr. Bhushan admits that it is not an ideal review source. The problem is that within two lines of the clinical vignette, the drug is revealed, so there is no chance to guess the answer. There are less time consuming ways to learn the side effects of drugs.

That book did not reach me and I sent a message to seller about it; but I did not get a reply until now.
