Aims of the subject

The aim of the course is to learn students to understand general pharmacological principles. This understanding is important for the study of specific classes of drugs (scheduled later in courses of Module IIC). Physicians should understand how and why drugs act in order to use them rationally in therapy. An additional aim is to learn students to prescribe a drug.
