Advanced Pharmacology
Advanced Pharmacology is a core requirement for completion of the Simmons College Family Nurse Practitioner Program, taught from the perspective of the prescriber. The course also meets the requirements for basic pharmacology preparation required to sit for national Nurse Practitioner certifying examinations by ANCC or AANP. While emphasizing the pharmacological knowledge required by advanced practice nurses to safely treat patients with common physical and mental illnesses, the course facilitates student awareness of clinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in the management of common disease processes occurring throughout the life span. Students analyze and discuss current research findings related to pharmacologic therapies.

This course is designed to meet the needs of the nurse practitioner prescriber in the primary care setting. It builds on acquired knowledge from nursing, pharmacology, and pathophysiology. The course will focus on clinical decision-making in prescribing pharmacologic interventions for health problems experienced by patients across the life span.
