Prerequisite: P2 or approval of instructor. PHAR-6280 Health Behaviors and Beliefs 2 hours This course provides a reinforcement of concepts addressed in PHAR-6110, 6112, 6121 regarding patient health behaviors and cultural health beliefs. In the first half of the semester, students will examine the theories explaining health behaviors and complete in-class activities utilizing the theories to influence health behavior change. In the second half of the semester, students will examine health beliefs in cultures around the world and the implications of these beliefs with regard to modern medicine and pharmacy. The students will apply this knowledge and devise patient care plans that integrate health beliefs. Prerequisites: P1 in good standing in the School of Pharmacy. PHAR-6281 2 hours Chemical Dependency and the Pharmacist This course will provide discussion and exploration on the disease of chemical dependency and the profession of pharmacy. Students will be provided information in such areas as the concepts of addiction, risk factors, signs and symptoms of impairment, emotional states during and after the active disease states, withdrawal symptoms as a detriment to recovery, treatment programs, pharmacy board actions, recovery networks and retuning to practice. Prerequisites: P2 in good standing in the School of Pharmacy. PHAR-6282 2 hours Biologics and Monoclonal Antibody Therapies This course provides a reinforcement of concepts addressed in PHAR-6131 and 6133 regarding the increased numbers of biologic/antibody therapies in clinical trials and those nearing FDA approval. In the first half of the semester, students will explore the details and insights of antibody molecules and how they are made and “humanized” and delivered as therapies. In the second half of the semester, students will master the therapeutic antibody categories and preferred agents for various disease indications. The students will visit an upstart antibody company in Columbus, Ohio and see firsthand the scale of the manufacturing side of biologics and antibodies.
