by Bertram G. Katzung, Susan B. Masters, Anthony J. Trevor · Trevor
The eleventh edition of the LANGE pharmacology text, organized by autonomic, cardiovascular, CNS, chemotherapeutic, and endocrine drug groups. It connects basic mechanism to prescribing decisions, so you can justify drug selection, dosing, and predicted toxicity in a clinical case.

Drug Discovery
The University of California San Diego, Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Drug Discovery course brings you lectures from both faculty and industry experts. With this course, recorded on campus at UCSD, we seek to share our access to top people in the field who bring an unprecedented range of expertise on drug discovery. In this course you will learn the drug discovery process up to the filing of an Initial New Drug Application or IND. Each week you will learn the steps that a pharmaceutical or biotech company goes through to discover a new therapeutic drug. In this course you will be able to: * Understand the pharmaceutical and biotechnology market a changing landscape * Learn the major aspects of the drug discovery process, starting with target selection, to compound screening to designing lead candidates. * Recognize current modern drug discovery based on the lock-and-key theory, which attempts to use one single compound to hit one target to combat the related disease. * Increase understanding of the various drug discovery tools and methods that are used for finding, identifying and designing a new drug. * Define and understand the regulatory responsibilities for drug discovery to file an Investigational New Drug Application (IND). This course is intended as part 1 of a series: Drug Discovery, Drug Development (https://www.coursera.org/learn/drug-development) and Drug Commercialization (https://www.coursera.org/learn/drug-commercialization). We would highly recommend that you take the courses in order since it will give you a better understanding on how a drug is discovered in the lab before being tested in clinical trials and then launched in the market place.
Khan Academy Health and Medicine
Free video lessons and practice questions from Khan Academy on human anatomy and physiology organized by organ system, with material on common diseases, diagnostic tests and treatments. Learners build the foundational biomedical vocabulary and mechanisms needed before clinical training or MCAT and NCLEX study.
Drugs.com
A searchable reference for prescription and over-the-counter medicines, with monographs covering indications, dosing, adverse effects, and pregnancy categories, plus an interaction checker. Useful for looking up an individual drug rather than learning pharmacological principles systematically.
Khan Academy Pharmacology
Short lecture videos in the health and medicine section covering drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, receptor mechanisms, and major drug classes. After working through them you can reason about how a dose reaches its target and produces effects.
Osmosis
An animated video library organized by drug class, pairing each mechanism with the clinical conditions it treats and its adverse effects. Aimed at medical and nursing students memorizing pharmacology for exams; most content sits behind a subscription.
Pharmacology2000
Forty-one chapters spanning the standard pharmacology curriculum, from autonomic and cardiovascular agents to antimicrobials and oncology, with visual reference pages and a large bank of practice questions with rationales. Built for medical, nursing, and anesthesia students.
