Hey all, welcome back to the Real Life Pharmacology podcast.

I'm your host, pharmacist Eric Christensen.

Thank you for being with me today.

I hope you find this podcast beneficial.

A couple other beneficial things at real-life pharmacology.com.

A brand-new release of free nursing pharmacology questions.

So I've got 21 different categories from cardiovascular to central nervous system and all sorts

of different stuff that I've put together.

The other free resource is top 200 drugs.

It's a study guide.

Simply an email will get you access to that.

The questions, the free nursing pharmacology questions are available to anyone.

Please share with those maybe going through nursing school, taking nursing board exams.

I think they're going to be a nice handy resource to kind of test your skills.

So definitely go check out those free resources at real-life pharmacology.com.
