Description
A comprehensive and clearly written book on pharmacy calculations, this new text covers all the calculations that pharmacy students need
to know in relation to pharmacy practice and clinical pharmacy. It includes a large number of self-testing questions at the end of each
chapter as well as some ?mock' UK registration exam papers. The opportunities for self-assessment allow students to practice calculations
until they achieve true competence. The book is especially useful for anyone preparing for registration exams in pharmacy, in particular
those based on the UK exam.
