How To Pronounce Drug Names: A Drug Book Guide to Pronounce, Remember, and Classify 350 Brand and Generic Drug Names and Prevent Medication Errors (Memorizing Pharmacology)

Book Synopsis: You rarely have to pronounce drug names in a classroom, so how do you know if you're right? You may find yourself isolated because you don’t speak the language of medicine. This book teaches you that language of pharmacology with plain English words. How to Pronounce Drug Names makes short work of hard to pronounce medication names. Just because someone tells you how to pronounce a drug name doesn’t mean that you can do it. This book includes easy to remember stories and step-by-step instructions on how to pronounce even the most difficult names. Can you remember, pronounce, and spell the active ingredient in the last medicine you took or gave your child? If you’re an administrator, can everyone in your facility who provides patients with medications spell and pronounce those medications correctly? If you have any doubt—whether you’re reading this book in a doctor’s office, a pharmacy, or a hospital room—I wrote this book for you. A revolution is happening in health care. In the past, nurses, pharmacists, and doctors spoke together at length with families about their concerns and medicines. But now, patients receive only distracted attention as their health professionals tangle with billing, electronic records, and insurance obstacles. This shortened communication frustrates doctors and patients who want to connect. If we can all speak the same language, we can keep everyone a lot safer.
