PHARMACOLOGY / MODULE 02 Original exam-learning note. Not dosing guidance.

PK/PD FOUNDATIONS

Exposure, response,
assumptions.

Use a model to connect exposure and response. Verify equations, values and real-care implications in approved current sources.

01

Set the model

Name what exposure and response mean in the specific learning question.

02

Use time

Ask when exposure changes and when the observed response may follow.

03

State assumptions

Every curve simplifies a context; say what the model leaves out.

04

Keep scope

Do not translate a revision model into dosing or patient-specific decisions.

RECALL

Can you explain the curve?

Use the foundations check after the module.
