18-PAGE ACTIVE RECALL WORKBOOK
The accompanying workbook is designed to make you actively retrieve and apply what you have learned rather than simply rereading notes.
Activities include:
• Nephron labelling
• Transporter matching
• Diuretic site-of-action challenges
• Fill-in-the-blank mechanisms
• RAAS pathway recall
• CKD and renal protection questions
• AKI clinical scenarios
• Sick-day medicine questions
• Renal dose-adjustment exercises
• Potassium interpretation
• Hyperkalaemia emergency sequencing
• CKD anaemia and CKD-MBD questions
• Urology pharmacology
• Multiple-choice questions
• True or false questions
• Clinical cases
• Integrated pharmacology challenges
The workbook also includes worked answers and explanations so you can identify knowledge gaps and understand the reasoning behind the answers.
BONUS 2-PAGE QUICK REFERENCE PACK
Designed for rapid revision before exams, placements or clinical practice.
Includes:
• Nephron drug targets
• Diuretic sites of action
• SGLT2 inhibitors
• RAAS inhibitors
