The overall outcome of the course of pharmacology and pharmaceutical galenic is to instruct students toward the attitude to regard drugs as clinical tools that interact with endogenous constituents producing effects that affect, directly or indirectly patient's health. Moreover, the course will consider the most frequent causes of analytical parameters induced by drugs or improper procedures in sample analysis. The course will also introduce students to basic principles of galenic preparation of drugs 

TEACHING METHODS
