. . . . . COURRESPONDENCE COURSE U.S. ARMY MEDICAL DEPARTMENT CENTER AND SCHOOL SUBCOURSE MD0805 EDITION 200 THERAPUTICS II In Subcourse MD0804, Therapeutics I, the basics of pharmacology were reviewed. MD0804 stressed the identification and use of references pertaining to drug information. Furthermore, you were given specific information on eight specific categories of drugs. Subcourse MD0805, Therapeutics II, is intended to give you a review of certain essential anatomical and physiological concepts important to pharmacology and to introduce six categories of drugs. The review of anatomy and physiology should help you gain a better understanding of how the drugs work in the body and how they produce the side effects that are commonly associated with their use. Remember that this subcourse is not intended to be used as an authoritative source of drug information. New drugs are being discovered and new uses for existing drugs are being found through research. Therefore, you should rely on this subcourse to review concepts or to learn new information. You should then use other sources (see MD0804, Therapeutics I--lesson 1) to gain additional information which will help you to do your job in a better way. ---------------------- Length: 134 Pages Estimated Hours to Complete: 14 Format: PDF file Size: 0.6 MB ---------------------- Subcourse Components: Lesson 1.
