PHAR3921: Neurology and Mental Health

2025 unit information

This unit of study integrates pharmaceutical sciences and pharmacy-practice content relating to the treatment of neurological and mental health conditions. The unit will cover the pharmaceutical sciences that underpin drug therapies used in managing these conditions; the physiology, epidemiology, pathophysiology and clinical features of the conditions; and practice-related aspects from dispensing to professional pharmacy services. Knowledge gained is applied in case-based scenarios, workshops and role plays, where students have the opportunity to assimilate the learnt information and apply them to optimise the pharmacological and non-pharmacological management of patients with these conditions.
