Enroll in this Postgraduate certificate and bet on a complete and comprehensive update in Hospital Pharmacology of the Respiratory System " 

Respiratory diseases make up a wide range of possibilities. 

The increasingly specific knowledge of the functioning of the human body, as well as its histology, has allowed professionals in this field to determine increasingly effective and efficient clinical and pharmacological strategies in the management of diseases such as those affecting the respiratory system. Therefore, today there are multiple treatments to treat both common conditions such as asthma or allergic reactions, as well as more complex and rare ones such as Steven-Johnson Syndrome or COPD. However, as in any scientific field, it is a field in constant evolution and more and more specific treatments are constantly being implemented.

For this reason, TECH has considered it necessary to launch a program that gathers, precisely, the latest information on the subject, serving as a trump card for any pharmacy professional in their task of keeping up to date. This is how the present Postgraduate Certificate in Hospital Pharmacology of the Respiratory System was created, a complete program that gathers 180 hours of the best theoretical, practical and additional content based on the advances in underlying mechanisms, emerging therapies and pharmacological strategies for prevention. 

During the 6 weeks of the program, the graduates will have full access to a state-of-the-art Virtual Campus, where all the material will be hosted from the beginning of the course, including multimedia resources. In addition, you will have the support of a highly qualified teaching team: experts in Hospital Pharmacology who have worked for weeks to shape an academic experience of the highest level and who, on the other hand, will be at your disposal to answer any questions that may arise during the course of the program. 

You will have access to 150 hours of diverse content: theoretical syllabus, case studies and multiple additional material to expand each section in a personalized way"
