GREAT for pharmacology courses by HRD (Minneapolis, MN)  4 Stars
July 01, 2009
This is an excellent book to use in medical school pharmacology courses. It then continues to be a great resource afterward. The text is easy to read and understand. One note, is that this is available on-line now through many schools, so before you purchase this, be sure that you don't have access to a free copy.

Pharmacology Book by Michael (Kentucky) 5 Stars
December 17, 2008
I bought this book to study for a CRNA interview. I got in, so I give props to this book. It is a good basic review of disease processes and related medications. The only complaint I have is that information different pieces of information may be found in different chapters related to pathophysiology, so to study a single drug may involve review in multiple chapters.

my favorite pharm book by K. M. Kemp (Fremont, CA) 5 Stars
November 25, 2008
i used this book extensively for my pharm course. it is very thorough and probably sufficient for what a med student would need. goodman's is probably more comprehensive, but that is a massive text.if you combine this book with some good flashcards, you should be all set
