Description
This course offers a detailed and structured exploration of antimicrobial pharmacology, designed to give students a strong foundation in understanding how these vital drugs work and how they are used in clinical practice. It begins with an introduction to the classification of antimicrobials, providing a broad overview of antibiotics and their general principles, while also addressing the growing global concern of antimicrobial resistance, including its underlying causes and implications for modern medicine. From there, the course delves into antibacterials, starting with one of the most important categories—cell wall synthesis inhibitors. Special attention is given to β-lactams, beginning with penicillins and continuing to other related agents, along with vancomycin. The mechanisms of action, therapeutic uses, and side effects of these drugs are discussed in depth.The course then shifts focus to antibacterial agents that operate through alternative mechanisms, including protein synthesis inhibitors and drugs that disrupt microbial metabolism. Students are also guided through the treatment of mycobacterial infections, with a clear presentation of the most up-to-date regimens for tuberculosis and leprosy. Beyond bacteria, the course explores antiviral drugs and their applications in managing major viral diseases such as HIV/AIDS, COVID-19, herpes, and hepatitis. It further covers antifungal medications, categorized by their sites of action, and concludes with antiparasitic agents and their role in treating common parasitic infections. By the end of the course, learners gain not only knowledge of the drugs themselves but also a deeper appreciation of their clinical importance, resistance challenges, and therapeutic applications.
