Practical Skills Assessment

The module will provide an in-depth account of drugs that are used to treat disorders of some of the complex systems not covered in Scientific Basis of Drug Action (SFP1013). Students will study in detail the principles of pharmacology, which underlie the rational use of therapeutic agents in the management of chronic disease of the cardiovascular, endocrine and respiratory systems as well as common antimicrobial, antiviral and antifungal agents. The module will complete the students understanding of basic pharmacokinetics.
