Mosby's Pharmacology in Nursing Summary

Mosby's Pharmacology in Nursing by Leda M. McKenry

Mosby's Pharmacology in Nursing is the classic pharmacology text now made even better. Known for its comprehensive coverage of nursing pharmacology, the 22nd edition retains this strong focus but features a new look and organization. The new full-color design and illustrations add visual interest and help depict key pharmacologic principles. The unique and engaging new format features a case study at the beginning of each pharmacology discussion, followed by a series of questions with answers that focus on application of the content to nursing practice. A new student CD has also been added that provides NCLEX review questions (500), drug mechanism animations, patient teaching handouts for commonly used drugs, and printable chapter summaries.
