This course aims to study the action of drugs on biological systems and the effect of the latter on the action

of drugs. The course focuses on the interactions that occur between a living organism and chemicals that

affect normal or abnormal biochemical functions. The students will encompasses basic drug composition

and properties, synthesis and drug design, molecular and cellular mechanisms, organ-systems mechanisms,

signal transduction-cellular communication, as well as toxicology, therapy, and medical applications.

This Module aims to introduce the concept of the pathological changes which occur with common

human disease. It will illustrate the gross and the microscopic changes that occur and how they affect

the function of the body. In addition, this Module aims to study the action of drugs on the biological

systems and the effect of the latter on the action of drugs. The Module focuses on the interactions that
