Yes it is enough.
My experience was great! I passed and only used the SDN to practice. I did it a few times to become more efficient.
I didn't get any log questions. The calculator provided on the computer is a TI-30 equivalent. You have everything from parentheses to log to square root. You don't need more for this exam.
If you need anymore advice there are several threads on this subject on the first page alone...

Honestly, I think SDN 120q is overkill for the naplex. I got perhaps around 20-25 math questions and they were only on meq, TPNs, alligation (use old concentration to make new concentration) and flow rates; I didn't even get one CrCl. What waste of memorizing IBW and AdjBW! No questions about pH or pka. I did get one about half - lives that I didn't prepare fo thus couldn't answer. The simple math in the RxPrep book is all you'll need to master the math area. Good luck on your exam!
Thank you for replying, this is so encouraging, what about biostatistics or statistics questions. Did you get any? What do you think?
I got exactly two questions on stats. One regarding absolute risk reduction and one on number needed to treat, both of which are easy to calculate. I would definitely read over the stats chapter and at least know their equations and what the terms actually mean (OR, RR, ARR, NNT, etc)
