Learning Outcomes

• Predict the activity of a drug based on its structure & physiochemical properties

• Demonstrate an understanding of how the physical & chemical properties of a drug determine its pharmacology,toxicology,bioavailability and behaviour in formulations

• Identify typical example of drugs which are used to restore physiological functions in gout & glaucoma

• Describe the mechanism of therapeutic action of a selected drug at the molecular,cellular,organ system and whole body levels

• Describe the common adverse effects of a selected drug & their mechanism of production

Learning Outcomes

•Demonstrate an understanding of basic metabolism in relation to drugs & efficacy & safety in relation to the treatment of disease and/or maintenance of health

•Have an awareness of the risk factors & prevalence of gout & glaucoma so as to identify & refer presentations in the pharmacy appropriately
