In this second-part of this three-part series, the student will build upon the knowledge and skills obtained in Pharmacology I. Combined lecture and active learning exercises are designed to aid the student in demonstrating the pharmacologic and therapeutic skills that a physician assistant will need to enhance patient care in clinical practice. Topics to be covered this semester will focus on the following areas: renal, endocrine, gastroenterology, neurology, infectious disease, hematology/oncology, rheumatology and musculoskeletal system. The student will use clinical literature and evaluate patient cases as they relate to pharmacology.
