Pharmacology is the study of the origin, chemistry, and uses of drugs and their effects on the body. Pharmacology in nursing school requires you to apply your prerequisites, such as physiology, microbiology, chemistry, and psychology.

The best way to succeed in your Nursing Pharmacology class is to combine different learning modalities: First, deep-dive into the topics with video lessons and master the key concepts with Lecturio’s concise cheat sheets. Next, apply what you’ve learned to practical situations by answering clinical case questions in the Qbank. Lastly, make sure you retain information long-term by regularly reviewing your knowledge with Spaced-Repetition quizzes.
