Welcome.  This is a blog that will serve as a companion to one of my textbook, "Pharmacology for the Prehospital Professional."   This is a book that is published and will be scheduled for release in February 2009.   

I am of the opinion that pharmacology is a hard topic to learn.   So many names that are hard to remember and so many difficult thing to remember.   I doesn't need to be so hard for the student or experienced paramedic.   I spent a great deal of effort to try to make this topic understandable for everyone.  We have also set up a podcast that is available for download. With the podcast, I provide a 15 minute lecture that is free to download.  This way you can study your pharmacology while driving, exercising, or working in the yard.

With this blog, I hope to connect the students and the author.  This way we can have a really real time discussion regarding topics and questions that you might have regarding prehospital drug therapy.
