Clinical Pharmacokinetics

This course provides students with an understanding of the factors involved in the processes of pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). This course will help students acquire a basic understanding of the principles and applications of PK/PD and characterize drug pharmacokinetics mathematically. Students are expected to apply the knowledge learned in this course to develop a population and individualized approach toward patient care to maximize therapeutic outcomes through optimization of dosing strategies based on disease states and patient-specific considerations.
