Homework

Part One:

Take our discussion beyond the classroom.

Who knows about drugs?? Take an informal survey of family members, friends, or coworkers. Do they know the medications they take? If they don’t take medications, do they know about over the counter medications – drug/pharmacological/generic/brand names? Do they know the side effects and safe doses? What about homeopathic remedies and herbal medications? Let’s do some “close to home” education and see what happens! Please blog what you found out or what education you provided.

Part Two:

Please go to ATI testing and find Pharmacology Made Easy in the Practice Tutorials list. There you will find and should complete the module for The Endocrine System. Be aware there are modules for every system for pharmacology as a review on your own time to access and practice as you wish.
