3 |
|
| A theoretical compulsory course of three lectures per week that includes an introduction to the science of pharmaceutical analysis and focuses on methods of quantitative pharmacological analysis using different standard methods approved by international pharmacopoeias, such as titration methods of all kinds. The course also introduces the student to several technologies used in pharmaceutical analysis and will provide students with the scientific rules necessary to judge the accuracy and correctness of data and readings resulting from pharmaceutical analysis in addition to discussing the correct methods used in the quantitative calculations of the active substance or impurities in medicines |

Practical Analytical Chemistry for Health Sciences
|
1 |
|
| A laboratory compulsory course that includes a set of experiments. It is designed for the practical application of the principles and theories covered in the theoretical pharmaceutical analysis course. Where the student performs a number of experiments in which several standard methods are used in the analysis of drugs, and the student in this course will be practically trained on how to judge the accuracy and validity of the readings resulting from practical experiments. Many of the methods of analysis that will be applied in this laboratory are methods approved by international pharmacopoeias |

Instrumental Analytical Chemistry
|
3 |
|
| This course is considered complementary to the analytical chemistry course for health sciences, as it deals with a full explanation of the student’s instrument about the devices used in the quantitative and qualitative analysis of the active substance and impurities present in pharmaceutical preparations. Emphasis is also placed on the methods adopted by the international pharmacopoeia in pharmaceutical analysis to link the course in the pharmaceutical industrial labor market |

Organic Chemistry II for Health Sciences
|
3 |
|
| An elective course with three lectures per week and is considered a continuation of the organic pharmaceutical chemistry course I, as this course provides the student with the opportunity to learn the basics of organic chemistry and a sound understanding of aromatic compounds that are used in the manufacture of medicines and methods of preparing and naming them, in this course the student will study DNA and DNA structures Ribeye. The course also covers a comprehensive study of carbohydrates, proteins and fats and their role in developing therapeutic drugs. The course also includes spectroscopic methods (infrared, ultraviolet, NMR, and MS) used for drug and drug analysis. At the end of the course, the student will be prepared to continue the next phase in the next semester through a medical chemistry course I, which deals with topics related to the structure of drugs and preparations and how to create them |
