Annotation
The pharmaceutical care is based on an individual approach to the patient, it is focused on patient´s pharmacotherapy and the management of drug-related problems. The fundamental idea of the subject is to acquire knowledge and skills which stimulate the promotion of the effective, safe, and cost-effective pharmacotherapy.
The aim is to learn how to use principles and tools of pharmaceutical care in specific nosology units, symptoms, and various groups of patients and thus contribute to the individualization of the therapy in order to optimize health outcomes related to pharmacotherapy. Students are learned how to coordinate patient´s self-medication and its risks arising from, how to maximize the effect of the therapy and minimize its risks and search for the possibilities of rational management of medication non-adherence and other drug-related problems.
Additionally, practical exercises are focused on correct use of application and self-monitoring aids, simple or complex drug forms, and simple diagnostic tests. Interactive seminars are focused on examples from clinical practice and training of individual pharmaceutical care algorithms.
Training of dispensing activity takes place in a pharmacy simulator and the audio-video technology is used.
