► THIS VIDEO
If pharmacology has ever felt overwhelming or impossible to memorize, you're in the right place. In this NCLEX-focused pharmacology session, Prof. Law—Lecturio’s Chief Nursing Officer and expert nurse educator—guides you through the most high-yield drug categories and test-taking strategies to help you succeed in nursing school and crush the NCLEX-RN or NCLEX-PN.
This video isn’t about memorizing endless lists of individual drugs. Instead, you’ll learn how to group medications by drug class, how to recognize organ-damaging side effects, and how to spot NCLEX-style distractors in pharmacology questions. Prof. Law breaks down the why behind the what—helping you connect drug actions to patient safety, so the knowledge actually sticks.
You’ll walk through how to study medications that cause ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and hepatotoxicity, as well as how to prioritize nursing actions when patients are at risk. This video also covers common medications tested on the NCLEX, including beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, chemotherapy agents, and insulin types—with clear explanations of their most important adverse effects, patient teaching points, and monitoring needs.
One of the biggest struggles for nursing students is knowing how to apply pharmacology content to exam questions. That’s why Prof. Law includes practice NCLEX pharmacology questions, walking you through how to eliminate distractors, apply prioritization, and use clinical reasoning even when you're unsure of the drug name.
This session is part one of a two-part series. It’s perfect for nursing students prepping for finals, pharmacology midterms, or the NCLEX exam. Whether you’re in your first semester or weeks away from graduation, these strategies will help you feel more confident in your test prep—and your future clinical practice.
