Review :
"There is a nice introduction section, which clearly states the nurse's role in the administration of drugs, and also storage of drugs, Pharmokinetics and safe administration of medications to name a few...There is also a small flash card that can be carried around with common abbreviations and drug dose rates, handy for any student nurse's uniform pocket!"
