Summary
A new program offering electronic library resources to pharmacy preceptors saw high participation rates, exceeding expectations. Minor logistical issues were identified and resolved, improving the service.
Area of Science:
- Pharmacy Education
- Information Science
Background:
- Pharmacy preceptors require access to electronic library resources for effective training.
- Existing programs and technology were leveraged to facilitate resource access.
Purpose of the Study:
- To implement and assess the effectiveness of a program providing electronic library resources to pharmacy preceptors.
- To evaluate preceptor engagement and satisfaction with the new resource access program.
Main Methods:
- Collaboration between the pharmacy experiential office and the library.
- Utilizing existing technological infrastructure for secure remote access.
- Marketing the program to eligible preceptors.
- Tracking preceptor registration and utilizing an online survey for feedback.
Main Results:
- 334 adjunct faculty members registered, achieving 34% of preceptors with active email accounts.
- Preceptor participation surpassed initial expectations.
- The online survey provided insights into resource usage and preferences.
Conclusions:
- The program successfully increased access to electronic library resources for pharmacy preceptors.
- Preceptor engagement was notably high, indicating program success.
- Identified logistical challenges were addressed, optimizing service delivery.

01:02Prescription, Nonprescription and Orphan Drugs
Prescription drugs require a prescription from a medical practitioner and can only be obtained from a pharmacy. They have many applications, including treating pain, anxiety, and hypertension.
The misuse and addiction to prescription drugs is a growing problem that can affect people of all age groups, specifically teenagers. This can happen when prescription medications are used in ways not intended by the prescriber, such as taking someone else's prescription or using medication for...

01:26Pharmacokinetics in Pediatric Patients: Drug Excretion
In pediatric medicine, understanding the renal function and drug elimination nuances is crucial for administering safe and effective treatments. Newborns, in particular, display markedly slower renal functions than adults, profoundly affecting how drugs are cleared from their bodies. This slower drug clearance requires clinicians to extend the dosing intervals for many medications to prevent drug accumulation and toxicity while ensuring therapeutic efficacy.One key area where these adjustments...
01:19Pharmacovigilance
Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.

01:24Dosage Regimen: Individualization
Individualization in dosing regimens is the customization of medication doses for individual patients. Its necessity arises from the goal of maximizing therapeutic benefits while minimizing risks. This approach is pivotal because human responses to drugs can vary widely; what is effective for one person may be inadequate or excessive for another. Interpatient (intersubject) variability refers to differences in drug responses between individuals, while intrapatient (intrasubject) variability...
01:28Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches
Designing a dosage regimen, which refers to the manner of drug administration, is a complex process involving the selection of drug dose, route, and frequency. This process is underpinned by pharmacokinetic parameters derived from tests and population averages. These parameters are then tailored to patient-specific variables such as diagnosis, demographics, and allergy status. Once therapy commences, therapeutic response monitoring is critical and achieved through clinical and physical...
01:26Pharmaceutical Poisoning: Potential Scenarios
Pharmaceutical poisoning can occur through various channels, impacting an estimated 2 million hospitalized patients in the U.S. annually with serious adverse drug responses. These scenarios encompass both therapeutic uses, such as drug toxicity, where even standard dosages can lead to severe central nervous system depression, and non-therapeutic exposures, including accidental ingestion by children, and environmental and occupational exposures.Unintentional poisonings often involve exploratory...
