Clinical biochemistry and pharmaceuticals toxicology
(objectives)
The course aims to acquire the fundamental principles of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, toxicology, and pharmaceutical galenics, which form the basis for conducting biochemical and pharmacogenetic tests in diagnostic and research laboratories, as well as the theoretical foundations for the preparation of galenic drugs. Students should be familiar with the scientific rigor and methodological approach underlying the development of new drugs. They should also learn the fundamental aspects related to the therapeutic use of the most frequently used drug classes. These objectives will be achieved through lectures, seminars, and interactive educational activities designed to facilitate learning and enhance the ability to address and resolve key issues in the pharmaceutical, toxicological, and pharmaceutical galenic industries. The educational objectives of the module of Special Clinical Biochemistry are aimed at acquiring knowledge of the main methodologies used in clinical biochemistry; understanding the significance of alterations in biochemical-clinical relevant profiles.

(syllabus)
PHARMACOTOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACEUTICAL GALENICS General principles of pharmacology: drug definition, drug classification, and nomenclature; desired and undesired effects of drugs. General principles of pharmacokinetics: routes of administration, absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination of drugs. Pharmacogenomics: individual variability and drug response, variations in target proteins, variations in drug-metabolizing enzymes. General principles of toxicology; toxicokinetic; mechanisms of intoxication and detoxification; main sources of toxicity; toxic effects of drugs. General principles of pharmacodynamics: receptors and mechanisms of drug action. Development of new drugs: general principles of in vitro pharmacological sensitivity tests, preclinical studies, experimental models of diseases, and clinical trials. Pharmacology of the Autonomic Nervous System (parasympathomimetics and cholinergic antagonists; sympathomimetics and adrenergic antagonists). Pharmacology of the Central Nervous System (anxiolytics, antipsychotics, antidepressants, drugs for neurodegenerative diseases). Special Pharmacology; general characteristics of the following drug classes: anti-inflammatories, antihistamines, opioid analgesics, antimicrobial agents, antitumor drugs, brief overview of gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and cardiovascular pharmacology. Principles of pharmaceutical galenics, techniques for galenic and pharmaceutical preparations, auxiliary substances in galenic preparations: solvents, excipients, preservatives. Techniques applied in UFA laboratories and CAR-T therapies.
