NUR131 Pharmacology II
This course is the last segment of the two-part Pharmacology course that builds upon the knowledge previously taught in NUR 130. Drugs that affect the nervous, respiratory, urinary tract, special senses, digestive, endocrine, and immune system are studied as well as anti-infectives and pain medication. The nursing process is used as a framework for medication administration and for presenting care of the patient as it relates to the drug and the administration regimen. Emphasis is placed on promoting an optimal response to therapy, monitoring and managing adverse reactions, and important points to keep in mind when educating patients about the use of these drugs.
