30 Jun PHARMACEUTICAL AGENT
pharmaceutical agent
You will prepare an essay (maximum 1000 words excluding the reference list) in which you will prepare a written report that explains and rationalizes why a particular pharmaceutical agent was prescribed for a specific condition (see below). The assignment should be structured as a topical review. That is, it will contain an introduction that outlines the pathophysiology of the disease, followed by a justification of why the pharmaceutical agent was prescribed. You will need to support that justification using recent research literature with peer-reviewed published evidence to support your argument. Your evidence may be based on factors such as drug efficacy, comparative side effects or common contraindications or other factors that provide benefit (eg. use in a combinatorial drug treatment). The review will then end with a conclusion that will sum up the arguments and offer a definitive conclusion to reinforce the key concepts.
