Could be good for certain students... by E Fang 3 Stars

... but so far, I haven't found it useful for my curriculum. Here's hoping that these cards will come in handy in the future in my practice!

They are awesome by Anyili (Miami, FL USA) 5 Stars
September 22, 2009
Concise and absolutely awesome. I did notice some important drugs were missing so they might want to add them for the next edition (less than a hand full).

PharmPhlash by Barbara B. Gonzalez (South Jersey) 5 Stars

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.

Loved the organized drug groups! by Karen A. Fullerton-Elsohn (Ocean City, NJ) 5 Stars
July 20, 2009
This product came along just in time. I was drowning in thousands of drugs, their names and how they fit into the big picture, when this tool came along. I loved it for it's basic uncomplicated structure of the the main drugs in each category. If you are looking for a PDR on flash cards, this isn't it. But if you would like to understand how drugs interact with each other and how they are classified and how they work for the patient, I highly recommend this easy to use learning tool. It helped me build the bottom and supporting layer for my pharmacological memory. Karen, Graduate RN in Jersey

Clinical Necessity! by Julie (New Jersey) 5 Stars
July 16, 2009
These flash cards are an excellent resource for clinicals; they are clearly written, concise, and also supply information vital to nursing care. Because they are organized and color-coded by body system,using them has really helped me to understand drug groups. I highly recommend these cards to nursing students and new nurses who are working to increase their understanding of the many drugs we are required to administer.
