Reviews
Technology Educaiton College, Scott Higgin -- One reviewer commented book tends to discuss more of "the drug classes rather than the individual drugs. This is a good approach as individual drugs continue to climb in numbers, the expanding number of potential side effects are confusing. Relying on the drug classes rather than specific drugs will give the technician an idea of possible side effects and interactions without trying to learn the myriad of drugs all at once."

Synopsis
In today's pharmacy, technicians are increasingly taking on the dispensing functions previously performed by pharmacists. Part of the LWW Pharmacy Technician Education Series, this easy-to-read book prepares technicians for these responsibilities by helping them understand how drugs affect human function. Focusing on classes of drugs, rather than individual drugs, the book highlights the general principles that apply to all drugs in each class - drug actions, indications, side effects, administration, plus practical information for the pharmacy workplace. Features include Tips for the Technician, case scenarios, and end-of-chapter review questions., In today's pharmacy, technicians are increasingly taking on the dispensing functions previously performed by pharmacists.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
