I've been looking for ways of retaining the most boring subject in the Nursing field - Pharmacology. It's so boring that I never thought I'd be able to memorize the meds. Thanks to Budek of Pinoy Bsn, it has been easier to memorize the names of these strange and alien sounding names with their classifications. Here it is in part because I've done some very minor editing to it to make it shorter and would like to share it with you. Here goes:
Antipsychotic drugs:
Si Nora, Ela at Ana
Sina Nora (norpramine), Ela (Elavil) at Ana (Anafranil) pumunta sa Avenida (Aventyl) para magwelga. Mga TOFnotchers (Tofranil) sila sa school at mga Ascendera (Ascendin) ang families nila.
Imprison (Imprin) them! Sunugin Sina Kuan (Sinequan)! Viva (vivactly) Nursing Students! Sigaw nila. Dumating Si Lex (Celexa) ang Faverite (Faverine) teacher nila.
“Mga Pro(Prozac) retake kami. Di namin Luv (Luvox) ang mga Paxil (Paxil). Mag Zolo (Zoloft) na tayo at don tayo sa Panama (Parnate, Nardil, Marplan) mag nurse.”
**** from Norpramine to Vivactly – TCA’s
From Celexa to Zoloft – SSRI
Parnate, Nardil and Marplan – MAOI’s
Antiemetics:
Si Marinol at Phener
Inap (Inaprine) na ang paghihintay! Say ni Marinol sa maal (Maalox) niya si Phener na Tagamet-ro (tagamet) manila pa. Zofra (Zofran) ka na sabay compaz (compazine) ng kamay para manmpal.
“Naubos ko na ang pepsi (pepcid) ko, ni regal (raglan) na ako ng kaaantay sayo. Ayoko na ano? Kay ben na (benadryl) lang ako.
**** all the drugs are for nausea and vomiting. Tagamet and Pepcid are also antacids used for heartburn. Maalox is also an antacid but has many other uses. Benadryl prevents nausea and vomiting and dizziness specially for patients with endolymphatic Hydrops (Meniere’s disease).
Mabuhay ka Budek!
