I love this book! It is a great compliment to the text that I am using for my Paramedic class. It was a required text for class, but I really like the book. It is easy to read and the information is not only interesting but easy to understand. This book has helped enhance my learning in my studies to becoming a Paramedic.
Excellent Reference

This book was required for my pharmacology class for paramedicine. It's an excellent text book, but watch for several misprints on drug dosages, (ex: milligrams instead of micrograms on drips). It made me pretty confused when the book indicated my calculations were incorrect when I knew I had the correct dose. I brought it to the attention of my teacher (retired medic) and he confirmed the misprints. Besides that, and excellent text.
Prehospital Emergency Pharmacology review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
An absolute for the serious paramedic and students alike. This book provides detailed information on pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics, with the paramedic in mind. The book utilizies a systematic approach starting with the fundamentals and advances to more complex pharmacological topics. Recently revised, Prehospital Emergency Pharmacology, includes new emergency drug updates, AHA algorithms, home meds and more. To be an outstanding prehospital practicioner, an intimate knowledge of pharmacology is a necessity. To maintain that knowledge base, Dr. Bledsoe's book is a must.
