Learn pharmacology through play. Build confidence in drug uses and classes, review what you miss with spaced repetition, and keep key facts fresh for exams
Pharmacy Shift makes studying pharmacology feel like a game.
Learn drug uses and classes, review what you miss, and build confidence through short, focused shifts.
LEARN BY PLAYING
Sort medications onto the correct shelf and get immediate feedback. Each shift turns pharmacology practice into a quick, focused challenge instead of another round of rereading lists and notes.
PRACTICE IN TWO WAYS
By Use
Learn to connect medications with what they’re used for across major areas of medicine.
By Class
Practice recognizing pharmacological classes, drug families, and common naming patterns.
Explore 17 pharmacology topics, including antibiotics, cardiovascular drugs, CNS, respiratory, antivirals, anesthesia, oncology, endocrinology, allergy & immunity, and more.
GET AN EXPLANATION AFTER EVERY ANSWER
Every answer comes with a clear explanation to help you connect the medication with its use, class, mechanism, or key fact.
USE HINTS WHEN YOU NEED THEM
Tap a medication card for a helpful clue. The timer pauses while you read, so you can think without rushing.
REVIEW WHAT YOU MISS
Spaced repetition brings medications back for review over time. Drugs you answer incorrectly can also return sooner, helping you focus on weaker areas and keep key facts fresh for exams.
DRUG REFERENCE
Browse hundreds of medications in the built-in Drug Reference. Search by drug name, explore drug classes, and quickly review explanations and key facts.
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
See what you’ve mastered across different pharmacology topics and keep building your knowledge shift by shift.
STUDY IN SHORT SESSIONS
Complete a shift between classes, during a break, or before an exam. No account is required. The app works offline, and your progress is stored on your device.
SHIFT+
Start with a guided first shift and a short By Class demo.
Shift+ unlocks the full Pharmacy Shift experience, including all pharmacology topics and gameplay modes. Monthly and annual subscription options are available.
The Drug Reference remains available without a subscription.
Pharmacy Shift is available in English and Russian.
