This is a revision guide for students providing bullet points of basic information on dispensing. "The FASTtrack" series is a series of revision guides directly aimed at pharmacy students. Basic information will be provided on all main areas of study for the MPharm in small concise texts. Each title will provide a summary of all key information along with diagrams, cases and questions and answers for self assessment. The books will be practical, easy to read and well-priced and will complement textbooks and aid students with revision for examinations. This "FASTtrack" is a companion to the larger textbook "Applied Pharmaceutical Practice" (published September 2008) which was designed to guide the student pharmacist or pharmacy technician through the main stages involved in pharmaceutical dispensing. This title provides students with a core reference to accompany the compulsory dispensing courses found in all undergraduate pharmacy programmes. "FASTtrack: Applied Pharmaceutical Practice" is a condensed version with additional examples and questions. A "FASTtrack" website includes MCQs, sample online content and much more.
