Unit 3: Cardiovascular/Hematologic Pharmacology
Welcome to Unit 3 of Advanced Pharmacology!
Angina is a clinical symptom often associated with physical exertion. Acute and chronic angina is approached differently. This condition is often concomitant with diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension. Risk stratification will be discussed, along with rational drug selection and treatment algorithms.
Additionally, this week will include hyperlipidemia. There are familial tendencies as well as lifestyle considerations when addressing this topic. This unit will explore treatment options and criteria for improve lipid profiles of your patients.
Unit Learning Objectives
- Examine the principles of pathophysiology and therapeutics that direct the pharmacotherapeutic interventions for cardiovascular and hematologic conditions.
- Analyze the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic actions of agents used for management of cardiovascular and hematologic conditions.
- Gather and apply the evidence for pharmacotherapeutic interventions in a patients with cardiovascular and hematologic conditions.
Week 4/ Unit 3 “To Do” List
- Complete the HYMR Cardiovascular/Hematologic Quiz
- Study for upcoming exam covering Unit 1-3

Welcome to Unit 3 of Advanced Pharmacology!
In this unit, we’ll talk about cardiovascular and hematologic pharmacology. Angina, a symptom linked with physical exertion, will be discussed. Acute and chronic angina are approached differently. This condition often occurs alongside diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension. We’ll explore risk assessment, rational drug choices, and treatment approaches.
This week, we’ll also cover hyperlipidemia. We’ll consider both genetic tendencies and lifestyle factors when discussing this topic. Our focus will be on treatment options and criteria for improving lipid profiles in patients.
Unit Learning Objectives:
1. Understand the principles of pathophysiology and therapeutics guiding pharmacotherapeutic interventions for cardiovascular and hematologic conditions.
2. Analyze how drugs used to manage cardiovascular and hematologic conditions work in terms of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
3. Collect and apply evidence for pharmacotherapeutic interventions in patients with cardiovascular and hematologic conditions.Week 4/ Unit 3 “To Do” List:
