PHRM 1115 — Pharmacology for Technicians I
Principles of pharmacology. Drugs are discussed in the context of drug classes, mechanics of action, disease types, and body systems. The goal is to provide pharmacy technicians with sufficient background information so that they will be able to play a key role in avoiding dispensing errors. Although emphasis will be given to the approximately 200 most commonly prescribed drugs, many more drugs will be discussed during the semester.
