The exhaustive knowledge of the epidemiology of the different diseases and conditions that have been identified to date has allowed Pharmacology professionals to develop therapeutic guidelines in accordance with the patient's needs. It is a coordinated and combined work between Medicine and the pharmaceutical area in favor, always, of the benefit of health. In addition, other very important aspects related to the biological imbalances that a certain substance can cause in the human organism come into play. In this sense, the gastrointestinal system and its derived diseases are a focus of attention for these experts, especially because of their intimate relationship with the rest of the nervous and hormonal mechanisms of the human body.

Based on the scientific advances that have been developed lately, TECH and its team of specialists in Pharmacology and Medicine have designed a complete program that gathers, precisely, the most complete information related to the hospital pharmaceutical activity in its intervention for the management of diseases related to the gastrointestinal system. This is a 150-hour Postgraduate certificate in which the graduates will be able to thoroughly review the epidemiology of liver pathologies, water and electrolyte disorders, the different intra-abdominal infections or the most common syndromes such as irritable bowel syndrome. In addition, you will also learn about the most effective drugs used in nutritional therapy.

For this, you will have 6 weeks of full access to a state-of-the-art Virtual Campus where you will find, in addition to the syllabus, detailed videos, research articles, news, images, self-assessment exercises, dynamic summaries and clinical cases based on real situations. Thus, you will be able to work wherever and whenever you want to improve your professional skills through an academic experience of the highest level adapted not only to your needs, but also to the demands of today's clinical sector.

You will work for 6 weeks to refine your management of the applicability and limitations of published data and reports to patient care”

Postgraduate Certificate in Hospital Pharmacology of the Gastrointestinal System

Hospital pharmacology of the gastrointestinal system is a medical discipline that focuses on the study and application of drugs for the treatment of disorders and diseases affecting the digestive system in hospitalized patients. The Postgraduate Certificate in Hospital Pharmacology of the Gastrointestinal System created by TECH, offers a complete and updated vision of the drugs used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders in the hospital setting. From fundamental principles, to the latest innovations, the program is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary for them to meet the clinical challenges related to the gastrointestinal system. Participants will understand the structure and function of key organs such as the stomach, small intestine, large intestine and other components of the digestive system. In addition, the major pathways of drug absorption and metabolism in the gastrointestinal tract will be explored, providing an understanding critical for their therapeutic use.

All about hospital pharmacology of the gastrointestinal system in this postgraduate course

With extensive positioning and a catalog of more than ten thousand postgraduate degrees, we became the most prestigious educational center for online teaching worldwide. Here, we offer both autonomous scheduling flexibility and an experienced teaching staff, coupled with exclusive academic methodologies. The curriculum will address diseases such as peptic ulcer, gastritis, inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. Students will learn about the pharmacological agents used in the management of these conditions, their mechanisms of action, appropriate posology and specific therapeutic considerations. In addition, antiemetics and prokinetics used for the control of these manifestations will be studied. Drugs that help resolve these disorders will be reviewed, providing students with a comprehensive overview of laxatives, antidiarrheals and intestinal motility modulating agents. Finally, proton pump inhibitors, H2 antagonists, and other medications used to reduce gastric acid production and alleviate associated symptoms will be explored.
