NSG 3323 - Applied Pharmacology

Credits: 3
The study of pharmacology demands that students/nurses apply their knowledge from a wide variety of natural and applied sciences. Successfully predicting drug action requires a thorough knowledge of anatomy, physiology, chemistry, and pathology as well as psychology and sociology. Not properly applying pharmacology can result in immediate and direct harm to the patient. The pathophysiology approach taught in Applied Pharmacology places the drugs in context with how they are used therapeutically from a pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetic approach. This course emphasizes nursing care related to the pharmacological needs of clients across the lifespan. 

Prerequisites: RN Licensure.
