Course Summary
This course has been designed for you to apply your knowledge of therapeutics, pharmaceutics and dosage formulations in a patient centred setting to optimise therapeutic outcomes for patients. You will apply your knowledge of pharmaceutics to make recommendations for patients who require dose modifications or dosage form changes because of their age, disability or health condition. As part of this process, you will be able to identify any changes to pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic profiles of the medication and adjust the dose or medication accordingly. You will be able to formulate and make compounded medicines for this purpose and ensure stability profiles using the available literature. You will be able to assess the stability of medicines used in dose administration aids and make appropriate recommendations to ensure stability.
