Resources I found useful during my pre-reg year, a thread. (For context I work in hospital - list not exhaustive!)
The BNF - yes its your best friend during uni but don’t rely on it too heavily, its often a good place to start but you’ll likely need to use other resources too
SPCs (on eMC)- more detailed than the BNF, I have found the pharmacokinetics sections particularly useful (yep - listen up in those PK lectures - turns out you may actually need to know how many half-lives it takes drug X to get to steady state!)
Renal drug database - I use this multiple times a day to check suitability/doses of drugs in patients with renal impairment. It also has info on dosing in renal replacement therapies(helpful in your ICU rotation). (Ask your Medicines Information department for login details).
Micro guide app - your antimicrobials bible! Trust antimicrobial guidelines are uploaded here. Also helpful information around dosing / monitoring of gentamicin, vancomycin Teicoplanin (often poorly prescribed / monitored - double check every time!)
LactMed app - drugs in breastfeeding 
BUMPs website - best use of medicines in pregnancy 
Medusa - information around preparation and administration of injectable medicines. Helpful for answering nurse queries around compatibilities amongst other things.
Handbook of peri-operative medicine website - handy for working on surgical wards & advising around medications to stop pre-surgery, & when to restart.
SPS website - brilliant detailed information around specific queries. Super useful in my MI rotation as well as on wards.
British Red Cross First Aid app - because you never know what you may have to deal with and that first aid course may seem a long time ago…! I think I’ll stop there - please add your favourite resources below!
