Dr. Guy is a phenomenal educator and his pharm book is hands-down the best one out there--not just for paramedics but for all critical care transport professionals. It's well-laid out, concise, topical and easy to use in both clinical practice and as a teaching reference. Dr. Guy understands what it's like to be out on the streets (what, you mean our patients *don't* read the textbook?) and his case studies reflect that practical applicability. And let's face it, pharm can be a little boring, but Dr. Guy's mix of humor and expertise makes it kinda fun. Our flight crews often listen to his podcasts on the way back to base as quick, effective reviews of patho and pharm. This book and its accompanying Podcasts should be standard curriculum in any paramedic program. I would give this book six stars if I could.
Dr. Guy offers his vast insight and knowledge on pharmacology to EMS providers on iTunes and now in paperback. His podcast, which are similiar to chapters in the book, are also excellent and I HIGHLY recommend them to any prehospital providers. The information he gives on medications most frequently used, routes and doses is up to date and easy to understand. Medication errors are becoming a common occurance and under stressful situations, even the most seasoned medic can make a critical error. Dr. Guy provides us with the upper hand in patient safety and advanced medication education.
Dr. Jeff guy has put together an excellent resource for EMS professionals in this pharmacology guide for EMTs and paramedics. I look forward to his other resources as he continues to put out excellent reviews and guidebooks for both EMS and hospital based medical pros.
One of the better, if not best, text for pre-hospital providers. Would certainly include it as an adjunct to whatever publisher instructor may be using.One minor shortcoming is the medical math section which perhaps could be expanded somewhat to include "means and extremes " calculations and other alternative methods. Overall great text and I would strongly recommend that anyone having a problem with pharmacology obtain a copy of Guy's book.
As a book fanatic, this is my favorite paramedic book. Not only great pharmacology, but great scenarios for "real life" situations. You get to make the call, and read on and see if you were right. Cannot rate highly enough, GOOD INVESTMENT.
We use this book in our Paramedic Pharmacology class. Very informative and explains all processes well. I would recommend this to anyone interested in prehospital parm.
It is an incredibly helpful supplement to my medic textbook. It's explained nicely and clearly to help understand what's going on.
It's an intro to pharmacology for paramedics. Simple as that. This book covers as much as it can with good illustrations and text. If you want a preview to this text check out Guys podcast for this book. It overviews most of the drugs and is almost as important as the text. This books is not a stand alone book. If you think any pharmacology book can be an all-in-one source, you are mistaken. Buy this book, read it, listen to the podcasts, and do your own research.
