Recommended reading:
- F. Rossi, V. Cuomo, C. Riccardi, Pharmacology: Basic principles and therapeutic applications, Third Edition, published by Minerva Medica
- Katzung, general and clinical pharmacology, Piccin, Seventh Edition Italian
- F. Clementi, G. Fumagalli, General and Molecular Pharmacology, Third Edition, UTET

Reference books:

Educational objectives
At the end of the course students will have learned the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, undesirable side effects, toxicological aspects, the therapeutic foundations and methods of administration of drugs most important in medical practice.
Should be aware of the factors that influence the pharmacological effect and / or therapeutic, as well as the risk / benefit ratio of drug therapy.
Must know how to make a reasoned choice of drugs in relation to different pathological situations.
Prerequisites
In order to achieve the intended learning outcomes, the student must have a solid background in anatomy, physiology and general pathology. The student must have already passed the other exams considered as preparatory by the Academic Regulations.
