NOTE: below is a 600 item quiz I pulled from Active Learning Center web site: http://www.med.jhu.edu/medcenter/quiz/home.cgi?SMSESSION=NO which is from the Johns Hopkins Medical center web site. The questions have been sorted and filtered (with great effort on my part) and are sorted and the answers are shown. The drugs can be looked up since each is an active link. The disappointing thing about this quiz is that it doesn’t cover many psychoactive drugs (SSRI’s, TCA, Anti-psychotics, etc.); it doesn’t cover many of the antibiotics, anesthetics or analgesics either. Nevertheless it is a good test and will be helpful to learn the top 100-200 drugs. Below the quiz is a listing of the top 200 drugs from Mosby Drug consult. These drugs are active links also so you can read about them if you wish (I recommend it). 

Good Luck. Dr. Clark
