Sample QBank question · Pharmacology

Which drug is used to reverse an overdose of heparin?

Vitamin K

STUDY GUIDE

How to prepare for B.Sc Nursing 2nd year

By Dr. Prince Kaushik, Founder, NPrep (AIIMS Jodhpur) · Updated September 2026

Second year is the heaviest for NORCET. Adult Health (Med-Surg) and Pharmacology alone make up a large share of government exam questions.

Where to spend your time

Adult Health Nursing I and II cover the major body systems, and Pharmacology I and II cover the drugs used in each. Study them together: when you learn heart failure, learn the drugs for it the same week.

Study method

Make drug tables: class, action, key side effects, nursing care
Link each disease to its lab findings from Pathology
Revise 1st-year physiology for the system you are studying
Practise case-based MCQs, not just recall questions

Before university exams

Work through nursing care plans for the common disorders; they appear as long answers. Close the year with a full revision of the drug tables.
