PHA 622 is an advanced course designed to provide graduate students with state of the art information regarding drugs, drug action and targets for drug action. Emphasis will be placed on drugs that interact with the cardiovascular system (PHA 622 section 001), the central nervous system (PHA 622 section 002), chemotherapeutic agents (PHA 622 section 003) and other important drug classes such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, steroid hormones, antidiabetic agents and toxicology (PHA 622 section 004). Each section is designed to be a separate one hour course. Students may take any combination of sections from one to all four sections. For each agent, emphasis will be placed on the cellular targets at which they act, therapeutic uses and potential toxicities. This information is intended to be integrated with other disciplines, including anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, psychology and molecular biology.
