Take the FASTtrack route to successful study for your examinations.
FASTtrack provides the ultimate lecture notes and is a must-have for all pharmacy students wanting to study and test themselves for forthcoming exams.

Pharmacology focuses on what pharmacy students really need to know in order to pass exams providing concise, bulleted information, key points, and an all-important self-assessment section which includes MCQs.

This FASTtrack book is designed to help students understand how key classes of drugs act. It focuses predominantly on therapeutic areas, considering the major classes of drugs, their actions and their uses. This book presents an invaluable study guide which not only covers drug action but also deals with molecular pharmacology at a more advanced level. It is a guide that will also be useful for advanced pharmacology studied in the later years of pharmacy and science degrees.

•Applied Pharmaceutical Practice (based on the textbook of the same name)
•Complementary and Alternative Medicine (based on the textbook of the same name)
•Law and Ethics in Pharmacy Practice
•Managing Symptoms in the Pharmacy
