Review:

good not complete

This is a good book to prepare for FPGEE. But there were questions in FPGEE December '06 I have never saw anywhere in this book. This book does not cover Economic, Social, and Administrative Sciences much.

Review:

Excellent Source

This Comprehensive Review is truly a comprehensive edition, in which I found almost all the study materials, except of course some of them, but for the truth it is more than enough....
but One should seek for more study materials and subjects, so as to be able to answer all the questions.

Review:

Great but Needs a Revision

The book is great in that it covers such a wide variety of topics and provides basic knowledge that are essential for a pharmacist, while it explains each topic concisely. It helps me a lot. However, the topics are not logically aligned. On the one hand, similar descriptions appear in more than one chapter, on the other hand, some chapters contain multiple, rather unrelated topics. Sometimes the book is difficult to understand: some drug names, units (mesh for injection purification), formulae (clearance), and seemingly contradicting explanations. The book would become even more helpful if its contents are reshuffled, some alleged typos and editing errors are resolved, and an index is added. Also, the book would shine if it acquires more detailed knowledge of drug metabolism.


Review:

Good for FPGEE but not for NAPLEX

this book is very hepful for taking FPGEE but it have very less role in Naplex.I will tell you all with the my experiance i have studied APHA pharamcy review for naplex whic is the best book.If any body taking naplex please also do Kaptest online which also have lot of patient profiles which actually come for your naplex.KAPLAN review is just helpful after you have studied some theory from some books like APHA.
