Updates for 2020! We've made edits and updates to the following sections: Asthma, Atrial Fibrillation, Beers Criteria, Chronic Kidney Disease, Crohn's, COPD, Diabetes, Migraines, Hyperlipidemia, Parkinson's, Sexual Dysfunction, Ulcerative Colitis, and Vaccines. In addition, we've created a section on the rapidly growing topic of Pharmacogenomics. If you are a pharmacist seeking to become board certified in geriatrics by passing the exam, this is a must-have study guide. We've edited our VERY popular BCPS Bullets book and created a review for the geriatric pharmacy exam based on the Board of Pharmaceutical Specialties content outline. With recent PASS rates around 40%, you have to have the right tools to pass this exam and this book will help immensely. In addition to the exam being very difficult, you are likely a busy professional with very minimal free time. I've always had a hard time staying focused while studying from large review article type study guides and have squandered hours reading while retaining very little. This book is intended to be a crash course/cheat sheet overview of the most highly testable material. I wanted to remember the really important stuff because I know it is impossible to know every minute detail. BCGP Bullets, the Condensed BCGP Study Guide will help prepare you for the exam as well as help you maximize your study time. We have covered over 100+ disease states with critical clinical pearls, like drugs of choice, drug interactions, disease state education, and geriatric-specific nuggets for certain medications. Biostatistics basics, important geriatric terminology, social, financial, and emotional considerations are also included in this book. Items like elder abuse, advanced directives, and power of attorney show up in the content outline and we have also outlined the basics of this terminology. I can assure you that there is no doubt this book will help in your preparation for becoming a BCGP certified pharmacist! The Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist (BCGP) is a designation from the Board of Pharmacy Specialties. The contents within this study guide are not affiliated or endorsed by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties.
