BTEC 411 - Pharmacology II


(3 semester hours)
Prerequisites: BTEC 311 
Description: This course covers how specific small molecules affect body behavior and response. Various areas of pharmacology are explored, with a special focus on the central nervous system. The drugs covered modulate and alter signals that are in turn interpreted by special gates and enzymes, but pathways and control are typically more complex. These concepts mirror those of other disciplines, in particular biochemistry and molecular genetics, and require critical and procedural thought. A primary component of this course is an understanding of what is considered normal for the body. Accordingly, human physiological systems are studied as an integral part of this course. Offered As needed.
