Ocular Pharmacology - Ch. 1 Introduction (Cebuano)

Introduction to Pharmacology Basics00:00:02

Defines pharmacology as the study of drug effects and actions. Distinguishes between pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug, including ADME: absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion) and pharmacodynamics (what the drug does to the body).

Routes of Drug Administration00:07:15

Explains different drug delivery routes including enteral (oral, sublingual, buccal, rectal), parenteral (intradermal, intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular), topical, and inhalation. Discusses the impact of first-pass metabolism on bioavailability.

Ophthalmic Diagnostic Agents and RA 805000:23:04

Details the five authorized drugs for optometrists in the Philippines under RA 8050: Phenylephrine 2.5%, Tropicamide 0.5%, Proparacaine 0.5%, Oxybuprocaine (Benoxinate) 0.5%, and Fluorescein strips.

Diagnostic Procedures and Testing00:29:34

Explains the clinical use of Fluorescein strips for assessing tear film (BUT), lacrimal drainage via Jones dye tests, detection of corneal epithelial defects, and contact lens fitting assessment.

Medication Color Codes and Ocular Delivery00:37:47

Outlines the standard color-coding system for ocular medication caps to identify drug classes, and summarizes intraocular delivery methods like intracameral, intravitreal, and periocular injections.
