| The book is full of mistakes. Faculty voted on this book without getting my vote.
<br />
<br />On page 259 in Pharmacy Practice it states, "add 100 units Humulin Regular Insulin to D5W 500 mL @ 20 mL/hr". Insulin is for diabetics. Diabetics do not have the insulin to store and breakdown sugar. Why would we put the insulin into D5W (dextrose 5% in water). Dextrose is a SUGAR! The patient's blood sugar needs to be corrected quickly. Why would we put the insulin into 500 mL?!
<br />
<br />On page 48 in Pharmacy Practice the label for gentamicin is wrong. It reads 20 mL=80 mg. It should read 2 mL=80 mg. Big difference.
<br />
<br />The total number of errors is too numerous to mention.
<br />
<br />I can hardly wait until Jan of 2008 when our contract will be up and we can return to our Mosby Pharmacy Technician textbook.
<br />
<br />Don't buy this book. It a waste of $$.
The writing in this book is so poor, I could barely read it. There are typographical errors and poor sentence structure. Some mistakes I can't classify because the paragraph made no sense whatsoever! One page tells the reader to not touch the weights for a Class III balance scale with "bear" skin! I'd like to know if it's okay to touch it with sheep skin. A third grader should know that a "bear" is an animal and "bare" means no covering on the skin. I can't review the content of this book because the poor editing and writing made it so hard to understand. |
