Applied Pharmacology
Highlights of this Course
This course includes the most important part of pharmacology, especially focusing on the drugs used for life-style-related diseases. The goal of study will be indicated at the beginning of the class as a list of 55 drugs.
Course Description
This course emphasizes the molecular basis of pharmacology and clinical application of medical drugs used for diseases in cardiovascular system, blood, urinary tract, airway, and gastrointestinal tract. Members of the class are required to have basic knowledge of physiology and biochemistry.
