Submodule
Drug Action, Exposure, and Response
Therapeutic decisions begin by connecting a drug target to the concentration that reaches it and the response that follows.
- Receptors, enzymes, transporters, and ion channels
- Absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion
- Potency, efficacy, therapeutic window, and dose response
- Bioavailability, clearance, volume of distribution, and half-life
Submodule
Formulations, Routes, and Calculations
A drug product is an engineered delivery system. Route, dosage form, release design, concentration, and measurement all affect safe use.
- Route versus dosage form
- Immediate, delayed, and extended release
- Concentrations, ratios, dilutions, and reconstitution
- Flow rates, isotonicity, pH, and buffers
Submodule
Interactions, Labs, and Monitoring
Medication safety depends on recognizing what can change exposure or response and choosing measurements that reveal benefit or harm.
- Pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic interactions
- CYP inhibition, induction, and transporters
- Baseline, efficacy, and toxicity monitoring
- Renal, hepatic, hematologic, and electrolyte data
Submodule
Patient-Care Workflow
Medication histories, reconciliation, assessment, counseling, documentation, and order verification turn scientific knowledge into care.
- Medication history and reconciliation
- Prescription and order verification
- SOAP notes and case presentation
- Adherence, teach-back, transitions, and social drivers
Submodule
Evidence, Pharmacogenomics, and Safety
Evidence becomes useful when study results, patient factors, genetic variation, and medication-system risks are interpreted together.
- Risk measures and confidence intervals
- Genotype, phenotype, and metabolizer status
- Clinical validity and actionability
- Medication errors, adverse reactions, and quality improvement
