Course Details
• Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics: An in-depth understanding of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics is crucial for grasping the principles of drug interactions in dermatology pharmacology. This unit will cover the mechanisms of drug action, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. • Drug Metabolism Pathways: This unit will focus on the various metabolic pathways of drugs, including phase I and phase II metabolism, and how these pathways can influence drug interactions. • Cytochrome P450 Enzymes: Cytochrome P450 enzymes play a significant role in drug metabolism, and variations in these enzymes can lead to drug interactions. This unit will delve into the different isoforms of cytochrome P450 enzymes and their clinical implications. • Drug Interaction Mechanisms: This unit will explore the various mechanisms of drug interactions, including pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic interactions, and the factors that contribute to these interactions. • Clinically Significant Drug Interactions in Dermatology: This unit will focus on specific drug interactions that are relevant to dermatology, such as the interaction between warfarin and retinoids, and the interaction between antibiotics and oral contraceptives. • Prevention and Management of Drug Interactions: This unit will provide practical guidance on how to prevent and manage drug interactions in dermatology, including strategies for identifying and monitoring potential interactions. • Drug Interactions with Cosmeceuticals and Herbal Medicines: This unit will explore the potential for drug interactions with cosmeceuticals and herbal medicines, which are often used in dermatology. • Clinical Case Studies: This unit will present clinical case studies that illustrate the impact of drug interactions on dermatological treatment outcomes, providing students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge in a real-world context.
