Technology and Galenic Pharmacy I

T and TPlectures using audiovisual and interactive means between students and teacher. Demonstrative and active practical classes with interpretation and execution of some techniques that lead to the preparation,packaging and labeling of medicines.Application of some control procedures for the prepared dosage forms

Continuous assessment with the completion of frequency to the theoretical component and theoretical-practical assessment through the preparation and presentation, in poster form, of a bibliographic research work.
Continuous assessment of the PL component, taking into account the attendance to classes and the interest and motivation of the student throughout the semester, and through an assessment with the execution of a pharmaceutical form and its final report. In all assessments, the student must have a minimum score of 9,5.T part 50%, theoreticalpractical 10% and practical 40%.The final grade is obtained by the weighted average of the three corresponding matrices

At the end, students must master the terminology, concepts and technical-scientific aspects inherent to medicines and pharmaceutical technology of dosage forms. It is intended to enable the student with fundamental knowledge about the pharmaceutical forms addressed in relation to the operations to which medicinal substances undergo, the physical, chemical and biological properties of the products used, the composition, application and preparation procedures and quality control . In the practical component, the student must be able to autonomously apply rational and scientific methods for the formulation and preparation of dosage forms, to interpret the formula, to know how to associate the substances, the incompatibilities that may arise and the fundamental aspects of labeling , conservation and storage of the prepared formulas.
