For educational use only, not a substitute for standing orders or medical direction. Compiled by a medic student/EMT-A.

Pharmacology Study Buddy

This online tool preserves the data and format of the drugs chart. You can choose which drug to display and how many boxes to hide. Type the answers into the blank boxes, then click button to check answers.

Robust features include random drug and random number of blanks. Random drug will be a more relevant option as finals approach, since it chooses any drug on the list.

The Study Buddy requires a browser with JavaScript enabled, so unfortunately it does not work on Palm Blazer (until Palm decides to bring its web browser up to standard).

To study offline, save the web page to your desktop or laptop computer.

Palm Quizzes

I converted the drugs chart for Quizzler, a free Palm program that offers flash card study, multiple choice testing, true/false testing, and reverse question/answer mode. Quizzler also keeps track of test dates and questions missed.

Trade names, Classes, Doses, Indications, Contraindications, and Adverse Reactions are large, multi-drug quizzes with all study modes available.

Acetaminophen, Activated Charcoal, Adenosine, and Albuterol Sulfate are small, single-drug quizzes that use flash card mode only.

Drug Photos

My ambulance service, like most 911 providers, carries less than half of the drugs on the chart. Click image to view full size. Photos are 320 x 320 pixels for Palm use, a quarter is shown for scale.
