Introduction: Introductions and Foundations of Advanced Pharmacology
Welcome to Advanced Pharmacology!
Welcome to Advanced Pharmacology. The first week lays the essential foundation for principles of pharmacology, role, and population considerations. Rational drug selection requires more in-depth knowledge within the context of scope of practice, ethics, and legal issues. Relatively new areas of pharmacotherapeutics include pharmacogenomics and ethnopharmacology, which identifies drugs that are best for certain populations. This week builds upon your undergraduate knowledge and approaches learning from the perspective of a prescriber including clinical judgment in prescribing and collaboration with other providers and is key to your success in this course. In every unit, you will learn about the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacotherapeutics of common drugs used based on each body system or conditions.
Unit 1 Learning Objectives
Manage clients who require pharmacotherapeutic interventions by establishing a foundation of facts and an attitude of inquiry to promote effective and safe prescribing (CLO 1)
Integrate resources that can be utilized to monitor pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacotherapeutic interaction to maximize client results and to reduce adverse effects or reactions (CLO 2)

Unit 1 Discussion
Unit 1 Discussion
This Discussion is intended to allow you to show evidence of achieving the following Course Learning Outcomes (CLO):
CLO 1: Apply critical thinking and best scientific evidence to the management and evaluation of expected effects, potential adverse effects, and potential interactions of pharmacological agents for the treatment of self-limiting acute conditions and chronic diseases across the lifespan (MSN PLO 7) (ILO 1; MSN Essential VIII; IPEC VE1, VE4, TT3, TT4)
CLO 4: Evaluate the impact of pharmacogenomics, access, cost, quality, and safety on prescribing. (MSN PLO 5) (ILO 2; MSN Essential VII; IPEC VE5, RR1, RR6, CC2, CC4, CC5, CC6, TT11).
After review of Unit 1 and Learning Materials, please address all of the following questions. Let’s take a moment and examine the components of your future FNP practice.
In your state, do you need physician collaboration to practice as an NP or can NP’s practice independently? What if any practice restrictions to practice for the NP does your state have?
Does the NP role in your state need collaboration to prescribe or can NPs independently prescribe? What if any prescription restrictions exist in your state (ie: can the NP prescribe all classes of controlled substances in your state, what levels, restrictions such as length of time or quantity limits)?
Do you think the NP role should have collaboration for practice and/or prescribing? Explain your stance on this position and use scholarly evidenced based information to support your view.
Does your state have a Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) or Controlled Substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System (CURES) system? If so, what are the details of this system (timeline for uploading of prescriptions to the system, reporting etc.). How will this affect your future FNP practice?
Initial Post:
Include at least 2 scholarly, peer reviewed, timely sources (within 5 years) in your response.
Writing should be in a professional format with APA appropriate citations and references.
Please note that on submission to the discussion board, Blackboard often alters the formatting of the post. This is taken into consideration when faculty grade the post.
Peer Post:
Respond to at least 2 peers whose state of practice is different than your own.
Include at least 1 scholarly, peer reviewed, timely source (within 5 years) in your response.
Your response should either add to the content of the topic or based on research findings you include ask additional questions on the topic.
Faculty Questions:
Faculty will be present during the week on the discussion board. It is expected that you will respond to any questions posed directly to you by faculty during the week. A failure to respond may result in a deduction of points as indicated in the Discussion Grading Rubric
Please refer to the grading rubric for further details on the content expectations. You can find this under “My Grades”, “Unit 1: Discussion”.
Initial post due date: Day 7 (Sunday) of Unit 1
Peer post and Faculty response to any faculty questions due date: Day 7 (Sunday) of Week 2
Please note: Internet searches will often take you to non-academic information resources such as Wikipedia.com, Ask.com, Encarta.msn.com, Infoplease.com, etc. For a graduate-level course, you may not supplement your literature search with these sources because they do not come under a formal oversight or peer-review process.

Unit 7: Neurologic Pharmacology
Neurologic Pharmacology
Neurologic Pharmacology
Welcome to Unit 7
Drugs that affect the central nervous system can be broadly categorized into those used to treat psychiatric or neurological conditions. These drugs affect neuroreceptors and neurotransmitters, in different parts of the brain, to bring a response. Understanding the central nervous system will have a critical impact on rational drug selection and side effect management.
Pain management, both acute and chronic, are topics of national concern, due to high rates of controlled substance abuse. The treatment plan is guided by the history, intensity, duration, aggravating and relieving conditions, and structures involved in causing the pain. In this course, we will focus on the pharmacology and the goals of treatment, along with rational drug selection, keeping in mind a safe and effective treatment plan.
Unit Learning Objectives
Examine the principles of pathophysiology and therapeutics that direct the pharmacotherapeutic interventions affecting the nervous system (CLO 1)
Analyze the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic actions of agents affecting the nervous system (CLO 2)
Apply critical-thinking processes to the management and evaluation of expected effects, potential adverse effects, and potential interactions of pharmacological agents affecting the nervous system (CLO 3)
Apply critical-thinking processes to the management and evaluation of expected effects, potential adverse effects, and potential interactions of pharmacological agents affecting the nervous system (CLO 1,2,3
