I wrote this mnemonic guide as an audiobook first to help you remember pharmacology drug names and principles quickly. While in the classroom your professors might say memorization doesn't matter, but you can't bring outside material to the board exam, so for this test, you do need to work on memory training. You already know the consequences of failing a class or board exam, so let's make sure that doesn't happen by getting pharmacology organized in your head once and for all.

Do you ever feel like learning Pharmacology is kinda like learning another language? You're not alone. In fact, I felt the same way in nursing school. Don't get me wrong, I loved Pharm. But, trying to keep thousands of medications, contraindications, and assessment information straight in my mind was, well...impossible. That's when I realized something. I didn't need to know EVERY medication. I needed to focus on the most important ones and really understand them well. So, I developed a list of the most commonly tested and prescribed medications.

I've had feedback from students that they just want me to read them drug names and mnemonics so they can put in their earbuds before they go to bed before their board exams. I've got three five year olds, I don't have time to do the heavy lifting you all do as narrators. In Memorizing Pharmacology: A Relaxed Approach, which will sell over 6,500 audiobook copies in its first year, I only had the narrator complete 200 drug names in a seven hour book.

Worth a read
I am on the one month line of starting nursing school & attempting to sponge up any tips for this journey. I have heard many a suggestions to start study groups. This has never worked well for me in the past & I was stressed that it would hinder me in nursing school. It was a relief to finally hear someone say that study groups are a waste of my time & my success is not dependent on them. Then provide alterative ways to study that would be better used in my limited time. I have been practicing nclex questions this entire summer, & happy to hear that this is how you succeed in nursing school. Opposed to the many peers that told me I was wasting my time doing so.
I have added a few more things to do before school starts because of this book. As well as essential items to buy before school starts that will make a difference. I am also excited about the additional resources & planner mentioned in the book & will report back if they are useful!
Thank you for the tips & suggestions, I would recommend to any new nursing student/new nursing grad.

Awesome resource
This is a great book for people who are not so familiar with the healthcare setting before they come to nursing school. The author explains a lot about what to expect about the clinical setting and a nurse's work flow. These were things I was anxious about all throughout my first semester so I wish I had this book sooner. She talks about what to expect in your skills classes too. I am in my last semester of nursing school now but I still found this book very helpful and would recommend. The audiobook is nice because you can always give it in a listen if you're feeling discouraged and hear "you got this"
