Introduction

The Applied Technologies Pharmacology CPU introduces students to both the therapeutic and research and design aspects of pharmacology. Students discover the nursing process of drug therapy and explore proper drug administration, common adverse effects, and various types of drugs. They also explore the drug pipeline and examine how a new drug travels from laboratory testing to FDA approval.

Students discover the history of pharmacology and drug regulations and how historical developments effect modern pharmacology. They examine how incidents such as the Elixir Sulfanilamide and Thalidomide tragedies influenced drug laws and the FDA.

They practice methods to reduce drug errors such as proper reading and writing of prescriptions and drug labels. They also learn important aspects of the nursing process as it relates to pharmacology, including contraindications, drug and food interactions, and proper patient education.
