  • 3.00 Credits

    A course which outlines the basic principles of management of the poisoned patient. Emphasis is placed on the underlying mechanism of toxicity, toxicological changes, clinical manifestations, related laboratory tests, and treatment of drugs and chemical toxicity. Class, three hours.
  • 2.00 Credits

    A course designed to introduce the molecular and biochemical basis of pharmacologic selectivity and drug actions. These principles will be discussed in areas such as receptor theory, receptor regulation and signal transduction, and receptor classification. Lecture, three hours. Alternate years.
  • 2.00 Credits

    A lecture laboratory course, which encompasses the use of physiological and analytical methods, used in determining the site, mechanism of action, and toxicity of drugs and chemicals. The sequence of laboratory experiments involves interdisciplinary approach incorporating the various areas of pharmacology and toxicology. This includes basic techniques used to monitor drug action and toxicity, evaluating drug action on selected disease states. In vitro biochemical methods used to determine pharmacologic and toxicologic actions, teratogenicity and reproductive toxicity. The analytical techniques include spectro- photometry, gas-liquid chromatography, GC-mass spectrometry, high-pressure liquid chromatography, atomic absorption spectrometry, immunoassays, gel electrophoresis, and tissue cell techniques. Lecture, two hours; laboratory, four hours. Alternate years.

The perspective is marketing and managing services for a competitive marketing advantage. Lecture- discussion, three hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    The course is designed to foster an understanding of the economic principles that drive the demand for and supply of medical care in the United States. Course content will focus on the logic behind the decisions made by the physicians, hospitals, managed care organizations, and government and the choices made by consumers on individual and aggregate levels. Emphasis will be on economic theory, with the applications of the theory to real situations that have occurred and/or are predicted to occur. Lecture-discussion three hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    The course is designed to foster understanding of financial management and accounting principles as applied to pharmacy and health care. Financial concepts presented include financial statements, ratio analysis, cost of money, budgeting, the pricing of services, differential analysis, capital investment decisions, cost management and trends, business plan development for health care services, taxation, and cash flow. The topics covered will enhance the financial decision making abilities of health care practitioners. Lecture-discussion, two hours.
