Description

"When we were studying for the USMLE Step I (the "Boards"), we found that there was no single adequate source for the relevant pharmacology. Many review books were too sparse and telegraphic and left many questions unanswered. On the other hand, major pharmacology texts were too verbose and detailed to use to study for the Boards. We therefore decided to assemble our own summaries of the important drugs. Our goal was to create a reference work that emphasized the "high-yield" facts but was also complete enough to provide a conceptual framework for learning rather than simple memorization. We opted for an index card format to allow for both an "active" style of flashcard studying and flexible organization. The widespread use of PharmCards since the first edition was published is gratifying and confirmed the need for such a study aid. In this fifth edition, we have redrawn the figures and added full color to enhance their readability. We have expanded the class cards to provide greater detail on drugs for diabetes, lipids, and hepatitis C. We have maintained the grouping of drug cards by category (e.g., adrenergic, cholinergic, and so on) and then by class (e.g., [a[pha]-agonists, [alpha]-antagonists, [beta]-agonists, and so on) as we have received positive feedback that this structure facilitates comparing and contrasting similar agents. Some drugs defy easy classification; in these cases, we have positioned them where we thought they would be most helpful for study. Also note that some diseases are treated with drugs that span drug categories (e.g., asthma and glaucoma). In these cases, we have listed on each card the name and class of the other relevant drugs to treat that disease"--Provided by publisher.
