Medical Pharmacology
A.Y. 2018/2019
Learning objectives
The course is divided into two modules: General Pharmacology and Special Pharmacology and Toxicology.
The General Pharmacology Module has as main objectives:
- the definition and classification of drug targets and the description of various aspects of the pharmacodynamic action of drugs;
- the description of the different biotechnological drugs.
The module of Pharmacology and Toxicology has as main objectives:
- the description of the various aspects of pharmacokinetics: absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drugs;
- the definition of rational use bases of the different drugs in the therapy of the various organ pathologies and apparatus;
- the description of the basic principles of toxicology.
