rn review

great resource, fairly concise. glad that i bought it to have with my other text for pharmacology in an FNP master's program

Couldn't wait for the new version to be published

I've been waiting a long time for the new version of this pharm book to be published. As a nurse, nurse practitioner & educator, this book has been the easiest to understand & use in all settings. The systems approach to presentation of content is very helpful. I would recommend this text to any nursing or medical student.

Best Pharmacology for PA-C's

Like Donna M. Fenske, who also rated this text, I had purchased many expensive Pharm Texts before buying the 1st edition of this text. At the time I was a PA-C Student at Stanford School of Medicine and this was the best text for successful completion of the program and certification as a PA-C. I am about to take my re-cert (PANRE) and will buy the second edtion. It is straight forward, no fluff and to the point. I think, at my suggestion, this is the current textbook for Pharm at my Alma Mater.... as it Should be! Thank you Virginia and Andrew, well done!

book review

Pharmacotherapeutic for Advanced Practice: A Practical Approach by Arcangelo & Peterson is an excellent resource book with in depth descriptions of medications, herbal products and their uses, as well as dosages, including information on adverse reactions and drug interactions. An excellent resource!

Pharmacotherapeutics for Advanced Practice

I just completed my Family Nurse Practitioner Program. I have purchased several EXPENSIVE pharmacology books over the past three years, all which made the pharm complicated and difficult to understand. This book is the best, easy to carry and easy to read. The cover is wimpy so am going to take it to a graphics place and have a binder put on it so it does not fall apart.
