This complete test bank for Pharmacology Clear and Simple: A Guide to Medication Classifications and Dosage Calculations, 5th Edition by Cynthia J. Watkins and Charlet L. Blades (F.A. Davis, 2025; Print ISBN 9781719651196, eText ISBN 9781719654067) follows the book’s “two books in one” design — half pharmacology, half dosage calculations, plus an intensive review of basic math. The text uses a body systems approach to pharmacology with a focus on drug classifications to prepare students to administer specific drugs safely in the clinical setting, and it combines pharmacology fundamentals with dosage calculations and math review to give essential knowledge for safe medication administration. Updated with current data and practice problems, it includes review questions and critical-thinking exercises to reinforce learning, making it ideal for PN, ADN, and LPN pharmacology and dosage-calc courses, NCLEX-PN prep, and skills labs.
