Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: This Lecture provides general information about the basic concepts of the interactions between the drugs and living organisms and to teach the students about the minimum pharmacological approach about the drugs used in maintenance of health and the treatment of diseases.
Moreover, this lecture aims to evaluates the major drug classifications, through the use of prototypes and teach the necessary the drugs for human systems and diseases
Course Content: • To describe the general principles of drug action and effects of drugs on the human body.
• To define and recognize mechanisms of drug routes of administration based on pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics principles.
• To recognize drug toxicity, drug allergies and factors influencing the mechanism of actions.
• To identify drug of central nervous system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, respiratory system and the mechanism effect of drug.
