PAS 6020 - Introduction to Pharmacology
This course will introduce concepts fundamental to understanding how pharmacotherapeutic agents exert their effects, including physiologic and pharmacologic receptors, dose-response relationships, pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics including drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, and the effect of drugs on the autonomic nervous system. Mechanisms responsible for drug effect, reactions, and interactions will be discussed. Finally, basic principles of clinical prescribing, such as considerations for special populations, drug ordering, prescription writing, and dose calculations will be addressed and common analgesic medications will be introduced. |
