"We updated material to reflect the evolution of the NCLEX testing universe. In this book we continue to prepare nursing students learning to administer medications and be able to pass the RN-NCLEX examination. Recent changes now require the test taker to recognize the medication and its effects and side effects by memorization of the generic name as well as new question styles.
