(EMCParadigm) Midlands Technical College, Columbia, SC. Text introducing the action mechanisms of drugs and their dispensatory requirements. Basic pharmaceutical concepts and techniques are covered.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I found this 3rd edition book to be very thorough for any that are not going to be a Pharmacist, but a nursing student, pharmacy tech student, or any interested in learning more about this subject.
Other Reviews don't make sense
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I don't quite understand the other reviewers comments. This text is called Pharmacology for technicians not Certification review. This book is a book designed to be used in a Pharmacy Technician class not as a certification review. I have been a Pharm Tech teacher for 6 years and this has been my favorite so far. So many texts don't go into pharmacology and medications as much as they should. If your looking for a review book for Certification then this is not the book for you but if you want to know more about pharmacology and drugs (which every technician should) then this is a great text.
Great informative book

The book is very informative. However the information in the book is not entirely needed for certification. Using this book will better prepare someone for the thousands of different medications in a hospital or retail pharmacy. Very few medications are actually covered on the national exam. Use the CD that is provided it is packed with extra information and of course the answers to the book.
