Advanced Pharmacology for Prescribers
Luu Kayingo · 1st Edition · ISBN 9780826195463 · Springer Publishing Company
Complete chapter-by-chapter study guide aligned with Advanced Pharmacology for Prescribers (1st Edition). Includes summaries, learning objectives, and NCLEX-style practice questions for all 29 chapters.
Overview
Advanced Pharmacology for Prescribers (1st Edition) by Kayingo and colleagues is a graduate pharmacology text for nurse practitioner, physician assistant, and other prescriber programs, built to connect pharmacologic principles to safe, evidence-based prescribing. This study guide follows it chapter by chapter, in the same order your faculty teach, focusing on the high-yield principles and condition-specific pharmacotherapy that advanced pharm exams demand. You get the foundations first, including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics, pharmacology across the lifespan and special populations, prescription writing, controlled-substance prescribing, antibiotic stewardship, and promoting adherence. From there it moves system by system through pharmacotherapy for ENT, eye, skin, neurologic, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and transgender care. It is an independent, aligned study guide, not the textbook or a copy of it. Use it to consolidate the prescribing principles and drug-class management that graduate pharm exams reward.
Aligned with graduate advanced pharmacology courses for NP, PA, and other prescriber programs; the review reinforces the prescribing principles and drug-class management tested on course exams and used in certification preparation.
