Pharmaceutical Care - Applied Therapeutics Lecture Series

Therapeutics is designed to enhance the pharmacists' basic knowledge of pharmacotherapy and integrate it with acquired problem solving skills. Didactic sessions, accompanied by discussion of patient scenarios, will give the learner the opportunity to gain an understanding of specific chronic disease states and the management of drug-related problems commonly encountered in pharmacy practice.

The course consists of interactive lectures that use a case-based approach to learning. Various pharmacists who have clinical experience in managing the disease state of interest are invited as guest lecturers. They teach and facilitate a discussion of the relevant issues and the management of drug related problems using patient cases. The therapeutic thought process (TTP) will be used as a problem-solving framework for the drug-related problems whenever possible.
