Everything you need to actually retain it
Pharmacology is memorization-heavy by nature. Catapult Pharmacology is built around three reinforcing formats instead of one long lecture.
Video lessons
Short, focused videos walk through each drug class -- mechanism of action, clinical applications, and adverse effects -- with a written outline underneath for quick review.
Board-style quizzes
Practice questions modeled on the way USMLE and shelf exams actually ask about drugs -- vignette-style stems, not simple recall.
Flashcards
Every chapter has three decks -- mechanisms, key facts & physiology, and adverse reactions -- so you can drill the specific angle you're weakest on.
A different kind of study tool
Drugs stick better when you can picture them
Pharmacology drowns most students in names, mechanisms, and side effects that all start to blur together. The memory palace method gives each drug class a vivid, visual location in your mind -- so instead of re-memorizing a list every week, you're recalling a place you've already been.
