clinical approach to general principles of pharmacotherapy – Free Course
What you’ll learn
- You will learn about the drug approval process in clinical trials. Additionally, you will study only effective method for learning a pharmacology.
- You will study drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination, and how to apply this knowledge in your daily clinical practice
- You will learn about types of receptors, examples of their activators, drug-receptor interactions, and the relationship between drug dose and clinical response
- You will learn about Pharmacogenomics, understanding how genetics influence treatment and why a drug may work for one person but not another.
- You’ll learn about remarkable pregnancy-related physiological changes, treatment adjustments, and drug safety during pregnancy and lactation.
Requirements
- Those who enroll in this course, whether students, residents, or physicians, should already be familiar with basic medical subjects. If not, that’s not an issue because I will also provide reminders
Description
Welcome to the Fullagonist General Pharmacology course! These lectures are designed to provide medical students, residents, and doctors in training with the essential knowledge and skills required to use the knowledge of pharmacology in their clinical practice.Here’s what you can expect to learn:
First of all, you will learn about the drug approval process in clinical trials. Additionally, you will study, how to approach the subject in order to study well.
In the Pharmacokinetics chapter, you will study how drugs are absorbed, and why does environment has a huge role. how and where are drugs distributed, and how drugs are metabolized and eliminated.
In the Pharmacodynamics chapter, you will learn about types of receptors, examples of their activators, drug-receptor interactions, and the relationship between drug dose and clinical response.
In the Pharmacogenomics chapter, you will learn what is pharmacogenomics, you will understand how genetics influence treatment, how genetics lead to unique side effects, and why a drug may work for one person but not another.Finally, you’ll learn about remarkable pregnancy-related physiological changes, and why your treatment during pregnancy and lactation must be different to avoid a catastrophic outcome – teratogenesis. After this lecture, you will not be afraid of giving a drug to your pregnant patient or nursing mother.
