It is intended that the student understand the most relevant aspects related to the mechanism of action, pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties and the most frequent adverse reactions of the most important drugs in each therapeutic classes.
The laboratory classes of this discipline aim at developing and improving the scientific skils in the design and performance of experimental procedures in pharmacological assays using in vitro preparations (isolated tissues) and the analysis and discussion of experimental data.
