PHRM2040 Exam Notes: GPA 7 (Overall 98%) & 100% for Final Exam

Description

These are the notes I compiled for my study for the mid semester and the final exam. With these notes, I achieved 94% for the mid semester exam and 100% for the final exam, and overall got a 7 for PHRM2040 (98%). These notes are suitable for everyone, especially for people who don't have the time to go through every lecture. These notes cover all the topics taught in the whole semester. For the mid-semester exam, only the first 17 pages are tested (Section 1: Introduction to drug discovery & medicinal chemistry). For the final exam, every topic is tested, but most of the questions will be on topics after the mid-semester. These are two main sections: Part 1: Introduction to Drug Discovery & Medicinal Chemistry - Modern Drug Discovery - Molecular Basis of PK/PD - Functional Groups in Medicinal Products - Medicinal Chemistry: Strategies & Tools Part 2: Discovery & Development of medicines to treat common cold, allergic rhinitis, gastro-oesophageal reflux, pain, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease & Musculoskeletal conditions - Antihistamines (H1 & H2 Antagonists) - Non-Opioid Analgesics (Paracetamol, NSAID) - Opioids & Cannabinoids - Local Anesthetics - Parkinson's Disease - Cholinergics & Antagonists (Anti-Cholinergics)
