Course Objectives

  1. Provide understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of different pharmacological experiments using virtual simulations and video demonstrations.
  2. Develop skills to assess drug effects on various systems such as cardiovascular, respiratory, skeletal muscle, and gastrointestinal tract using simulation models. 3. preparation, spasmogen and spasmolytic effects, and PA2 value determination using Schild plot.
  3. Provide knowledge of modern techniques for drug evaluation.
  4. Explore clinical pharmacology aspects through case studies on drug interactions, management of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, and plasma volume expanders.

Course Outcomes

COUpon successful completion of this course, the students will be able to:
No.
1Describe the drug effects on blood pressure, heart rate, and understand their relevance to cardiovascular pharmacotherapy through virtual simulations.
2Evaluate the pharmacological management of asthma, analyse drug actions on the respiratory system, and correlate them with clinical data.
3Interpret experimental data, calculate and analyse PA2 values, plot standard curves, and estimate drug effects using hypothetical data from computer simulations.
4Present case studies and explore drug interactions and rational drug management in cardiovascular situations and asthma, applying pharmacological knowledge to patient care.
5Demonstrate competence in various pharmacological measurements, such as intraocular pressure estimation, nitric oxide estimation in plasma, and spirometry.
