How To Create Nursing Drug Cards

By Deanne Shepard


Nursing students used the drug cards to know how drugs have been administered and used by many professionals. This is their way to know the right dosage that will be given to the patients and the side effects after taking the medicines. Although, these can be purchased in many stores, but making your own cards would be essential to familiarize all details about a certain drug.

Before you get started, you have to learn some important information from your instructor and the data that should be included to your project. By creating nursing drug cards, basic information is usually applicable. However, some teachers would require to add other information. If your teacher explains the necessary requirements needed, jot down all important data that could be included with your project.

Prepare all necessary tools, supplies and materials. You only need markers, stack of note cards and highlighters. Your teacher will give you the appropriate size and the certain quantity of notes for the information. If you have some plans, you better jot it down with your pencil. Using a pencil is essential, so that you can easily erase and replace some data if necessary.

You can also use your markers or even the highlighters. You can apply varieties of colors so you can make a color coded card. Every information will be colored with the colors you desire. It could be color pink, blue or orange. You may also use the internet and gather textbooks when you make a medical card.

You need to write all the generic name and trade codes for the drugs in the card. You may also include the pronunciation for every drug. But, in this case, you do not have to color the whole thing. You can simply mark it with black color. Flip each note card and keep writing other data at the back of the note card.

You may write again the codes at the top portion of the cards. Write all the data or statistics in a neat, tidy and clean manner. You can also refer a certain requirements coming from your teacher. The most common details are the drug classifications, dosage, common side effects, therapeutic effects, drug actions and the nursing implications.

You may color this portion with any color you like. You can use the colors that may mark a certain data. Just for an example, the word effect, will be colored with orange. It depends on you, on making it effective, once you will be going to memorize it. You can also use a marker in making an outline in each section.

You continue writing the required medicines. Your instructor will also give you the lists needed. If not, then you should assess the patients and lean the type of drugs provided to them After that, you may create a card with the drugs you have been given to them. You may also check the side effects after taking the drugs.

Once you are done gathering all the details and information, then it is time to study all the gathered statistics. You have to check yourself if you learn something from your data gathering and while making your note cards. This is a good way to measure if you have fully understood the whole process.
