⭐ The Davis Drug Guide will always be my go to for IN-DEPTH med info, but so far, I am liking the Mosby’s Pharm NoteCards. I am a nursing student and I’m using this to cement the information I learned in my nursing previous nursing courses and most recently taken pharmacology course (being that it was a 6-week summer course, we did not have enough time to go as in depth as I would have liked). Book is nicely sized to carry with you when you feel like studying on a whim, not sure you’d like in in your pocket at clinical though, nor is it easy to flip through. I do wish the specific medications were highlighted or bold, since they do tend to blend into the page (example: anti-hypertensives on information page; see picture #4) but I do like how it is specific to nursing care for a patient on these drugs. The cartoon drawings help, but sometimes they have little tid-bits that are there merely for humor. Don’t waste my brain space! haha Nursing student problems 🙂 It bugged me that no one had posted a picture of the book itself, so this is basically my motivation for the review. I will possibly update after the summer once I have had a solid chance to really read through it. Hope this helps!

⭐ Definitely wish I would have bought this three semesters ago! This is brilliant! Can’t believe all the useful, clear, concise information in these compact cards. WORTH THE MONEY!!!!

⭐ I love this book! I have 2 weeks left in my pharm semester and wish I would have found this sooner!! It is super easy to read, colorful to keep you from getting bored and loaded with useful info.

⭐ Great for visual learners. The front of each card comes with a cartoon illustration with funny dialogue that can make memorizing medications easier. The back of each card contains important information on drug classess such as: mode of action, uses, side effects, what to monitor for, and patient teaching.I love these flash cards! They’re not too bulky. It’s small enough to carry in a purse making it convenient to study on the go.It does not go over specific medications just the drug classes and it covers drug classes from every body system.I bought it new and recieved it sealed in plastic wrap.

⭐ Taking pharmacology is a very hard course. Because not only do you have to know the medications you have to know the class, generic names, what they do to the body, what they’re given for, and loads of other reasons. Especially what signs and symptoms to look out for. I am a person that learns visually and this book is great for that. This book has such great pictures and images that allow you to lock the material in. So if you someone who learns from pictures this is the book for you. This personal book Is a great size to carry with you to class and even to keep on your med cart at work.

⭐ I love this! This is how I study! I need pneumonic devices, drawings. I have hundreds of handmade flash cards, I write them out, hole punch ‘em, and put them on one of those metal rings from the dollar tree. Hundreds of cards and lots of time. I love it, honestly, because I get results. I remember everything this way, even if I’m barely paying attention when I’m flipping through the cards, they absorb and I can recall them later. I’M SO THANKFUL SOMEONE ELSE WROTE THESE CARDS FOR ME SO I DON’T HAVE TO, LOL. I was dreading doing the cards for Pharmacology and right now, I’m pretty confident these are gonna fit the bill for my “card learner” needs. They’re colorful, funny, and easy to flip. And they’re a little bigger than regular index cards, so no squinting. I’m really happy with this purchase!

⭐ I like the idea behind having flash cards in a spiral bound format. They are durable and the pictures are colorful. The information on the topics and drugs listed is good. But if you’re looking for more than just a few popular drugs, then I don’t recommend this product. I bought it for my pharmacology class and it was a disappointment. Not all drug classes are listed, and the drugs listed are extremely limited and basic.This would be a good starter for a pre-nursing student who just wants to become familiar but not dig in too deep, before entering a nursing program. Again, quality is good, but I gave 3 stars because it’s not detailed enough.

⭐ The media could not be loaded. I bought this because I was starting Med-Surg 1 and it turned out to be very explanatory and easy to remember! I showed some people in my class and a couple of them bought one as well (:The mnemonics are so cute and easy to remember along with the information on the back of the card being very straight to the point and easy to understand! It does not contain every medication out there obviously but the ones it does have are the medications and information that is mostly used, so for whatever subject you’re learning about, it’ll have the information about the most commonly used medications and administrations. Great notecards!

⭐ Do not underestimate this life-saver: it has the text on the back side of the pictures. I found it’s easier to study pictures first, and then read through description of the side effects, nursing implications, Pt teaching, etc. Pocket-size book printed on thick glossy paper.

⭐ Hi! I bought the Mosby’s Pharm. Memory Notecards on Amazon, $18 + free shipping … and I really like it so far; it’s small enough to throw in my little hiking pack and there is a visual cartoon on one side and then the important fact on the other for each important drug.The important facts include: nursing considerations, life threatening implications, most frequent side effects & patient teaching.The chapters include:Admin.Atbx/antiviralsAnticoagulants & HematinicscardiacCNSDiureticsendocrinegastrointestional… many more … muscoskeletal, pain, psychiatric …So I just graduated nursing school!!!! And I am preparing for NCLEX; my plan is to read a chapter in my Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN® Examination, 5e (Saunders Comprehensive Review for Nclex-Rn) and then learn the drugs …Have a good day! Anyday that I’m not stressing about a careplan will be a good day!!! & I have a job!
