  • Clinical pharmacology is a subject that many healthcare students and professionals find challenging. There are a lot of drugs, indications, mechanisms and side-effects to memorise and that can make learning dull and difficult. In the workplace, this can lead to wasted time and wrong prescriptions.

    Dr. Mark Carew from the University of Exeter Medical School created “What the Pharma?” to take the pain out of learning clinical pharmacology by turning it into a fun, engaging game.

    • Simple, fun game that can be played anywhere from a seminar to a coffee break
    • 8 card decks, covering everything from brains to bacteria
    • Match drugs with their indications, mechanisms of action and side effects to win
    • Multiple ways to play – as a group or on your own
