Curren's Math for Meds: Dosages and Solutions by Gladdi Tomlinson

Tomlinson/Boose's CURREN'S MATH FOR MEDS: DOSAGES AND SOLUTIONS, 12e, covers basic math concepts and systems of measurement for dosage calculation. Careful attention to practices encouraging safety in medication preparation, calculation and administration are outlined. Three common methods of dosage calculation are introduced. Examples encourage students to do practice problems using the method they are most comfortable with. Basic to advanced pediatric and intravenous (IV) calculations are addressed. Photos of drug labels, syringes, hundreds of examples, practice problems and summary test questions provide opportunities to practice interpreting labels of medications commonly seen in clinical practice. Examples guide students with information for safe, accurate dosage calculations. Clinical relevance summaries help connect information in the chapter to the clinical setting.

Gladdi Tomlinson and Lou Ann Boose have taught together for more than 30 years in various levels of the nursing program at Harrisburg Area Community College. During those 30 years, both were involved in creating first- and second-level dosage calculation courses, as well as teaching the courses in the classroom and online. Both Gladdi and Lou Ann have decades of clinical experience, including areas of medical/surgical, orthopedics, oncology and gerontology. Gladdi retired in 2014 and remains an adjunct professor at the college. Lou Ann retired in 2020 after achieving senior professor status and remains an adjunct professor at the college. Both remain committed and dedicated to fostering a sense of confidence in students related to dosage calculation and instilling the value of practicing safely in the clinical setting.
