Thematik

The aim of the course is to give an integrative overview on the physiological, pathophysiological and pharmacological aspects of pain. Major tasks are to (i) provide information on peripheral and central mechanisms of pain and hyperalgesia; (ii) describe the major features of existing analgesics including opioids, non-steroidal antiinflammatory agents and adjuvant analgesics; (iii) outline novel targets for development of analgesic drugs. The course will also help students prepare for the exams in Pharmacology 2 and 3.
