As in the other pharmacology subcourses, you will be provided background material in anatomy, physiology, and pathology in order to help you learn about the specific drugs<br \/>\ndiscussed in the subcourse.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Remember, this subcourse is not intended to be used as an authoritative source of drug information. As you know, new drugs are being discovered and new uses for existing drugs are being found through research. Therefore, this subcourse can serve<br \/>\nas a means for your review or initial learning of pharmacological concepts. You are strongly encouraged to use other references (see MD0804, Pharmacology I) to gain additional information which will help you to do your job in a better way. Knowing more about pharmacology can help you to better serve your patients.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Subcourse Components:<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This subcourse consists of eleven lessons as follows:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 1 The Human Digestive System.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 2, Antacids and Digestants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 3, Emetics, Antiemetics, and Antidiarrheals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 4, Cathartics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 5, Fluid and Electrolyte Therapy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 6, Review of the Endocrine System.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 7, Thyroid, Antithyroid, and Parathyroid Preparations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 8, Reproductive Hormones and Oral Contraceptives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 9, Adrenocortical Hormones.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 10, Insulin and the Oral Hypoglycemic Agents.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 40px;\">Lesson 11, Oxytocics and Ergot Alkaloids.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211;Read and study each lesson carefully.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211;Complete the subcourse lesson by lesson.
