The role of medicines in society (including complementary medicines), introductory pharmacy law and ethics. The evolution and role of the pharmacist as a health care professional, pharmacy organisations, sources of pharmaceutical information, and professional communication. Introduction to dispensing and compounding of medicines. The use of drugs in society including historical perspectives. Selected examples of the use of medicines in disease, recreational drug use and drug misuse, and cultural and ethnic influences on drug use. Differences between conventional and complementary medicines. The role of the pharmaceutical industry in drug discovery, manufacture and promotion. Legal and ethical issues pertaining to access to pharmaceuticals. To complete this course students must attain a level of competency in the English language as determined by the School of Pharmacy. Dispensing of prescriptions, pharmaceutical calculations, and preparation of extemporaneous medicines in common use. Development of knowledge, skills and attitudes required for communicating with other health professionals and patients. Sociocultural dimensions of healthcare. Law, ethics and medicines information. Practical experience in community pharmacy. The physical and chemical properties of materials used in the design of medicinal dosage forms. These principles are applied in the formulation and design of drug dosage forms and delivery systems, and choice of routes of administration of drugs. An integrated approach to the fundamental physiological processes which enable the human body to maintain its viability in an ever-changing world. Examples of normal and abnormal function are used to illustrate interactions in vital physiological processes, including control of fluid and electrolytes, energy use, oxygen and metabolites, and cardiovascular control. Dispensing of medicines in accordance with legal and professional requirements. Responding to symptoms, over-the-counter prescribing and health promotion. Quality and safety of medicines use. Evidence-based practice. Practical experience in community pharmacy. Actions, mechanisms of action and therapeutic uses of drugs with reference to the following systems and disorders: cardiovascular system disorders and risk management, respiratory disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, common skin disorders, rheumatic disorders, neurological disorders, and fever and pain control. A case-based approach is supplemented by clinical visits. The scientific principles of formulation and drug delivery, and the choice of appropriate routes of administration. Principles behind the development of pharmaceutical dosage forms capable of achieving predictable and reproducible therapeutic responses are developed, including an introduction to industrial processes and quality assurance. Themes in pharmaceutical formulation, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), quality assurance, dosage form design, and novel drug delivery systems are further developed. A problem-based approach is supplemented by industrial visits. Elements of pharmacy practice, pharmacotherapy and pharmaceutical science are integrated with an emphasis on the optimal drug treatment of individual patients with cardiovascular disease, asthma, diabetes, and other complex conditions and special populations. A mix of workshops, case discussions, and dispensing practicals is provided. Pharmaceutical care provision is emphasised.
