TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOVIGILANCE
(objectives)
The course aims to provide the student with fundamental knowledge on the basic principles of toxicology and pharmacovigilance. In particular, toxicological aspects deriving from the voluntary use or from the involuntary exposure of the human body to various toxic substances and/or drugs will be analysed. Furthermore, the theoretical-practical bases of pharmacovigilance will be provided. The knowledge acquired by the student will be useful in his professional practice, both in pharmacy and in research laboratories, as well as in development, production and control departments of pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food products, allowing him to predict and prevent the toxicity deriving from environmental contaminants and from both the correct and improper use of medicines.
