Topic

Courses of pharmaceutical technology are taught in the 3rd and 4th years of school of pharmacy. Aim of courses of Pharmaceutical Technology is introducing basic technological processes, preformulation and formulation of pharmaceutical dosage forms taking into account physico-chemical, pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical properties of active agents and pharmaceutical excipients.

Further studies include review of national and international pharmacopoeias.

Practices usually begin with seminars where basic introduction of the proper lesson takes place. After seminars students have to prepare medicines according to the laws of pharmaceutical formulation technology in proper dosage forms including calculation of single and daily maximal dose, preparation, labeling and pricing. Students also have to prepare galenic formulations according to the official formula. Practices of quality control of medicines are carried out as well.

Course Pharmaceutical Technology 1 includes practice with liquid dosage forms such as solution, syrup, elixir, oral drop, ear drop, nasal drop, parenteral solution and associated calculations with practices of quality control of mentioned dosage forms.

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

1. Accepted preparations made on practices.

2. Accepted work reports.

3. Accepted practical and theoretical assessments.

4. At the beginning of all practice classes students write short tests of different types (dose checking, synonim names and latin expressions, calculations). Semester only can be accepted if students reach at least 50% from each short test type.

Evaluation of the practices is according to the semester work (practice work, assessments, work reports) by practice grade. In case of fulfilled 1-3 sections, the requirement of the accepted semester is to reach at least satisfactory grade.

Mid-term exams

Students have to write three assessments during the semester and they have to reach 60 % after average calculation. After two assessments if students reach average 60 % taking into account both tests, writing the third assesment it not compulsory. The third assessments (which is considered as the 1st retake) has to above 60,1 %. If the student fails on the 3rd assessment, there is still chance for the 2nd retake, where student has to reach 60,1% for the acceptance of the semester. In case of confirmed absence from the assessment, re-take chance is sossible for the student. Missing the re-take results 0 % assessment.

Making up for missed classes

Students must fulfil requirements determined by the Code of Studies and Examinations.

All missed or failed preparations manufactured on the practice should be made up on supplementary practices!

Exam topics/questions

The end-semester exam will be evaluated by a five-grade system. Knowledge acquired is tested based on subject matter defined by a list of topics provided by the institute.

At the end of semester, students take oral exam. The "A" chance exam is in determined date for students finishing the course. Chance "B" and "C" are oral exams, which is preceded by the "Minimum Test" (MT). To write the MT, students have at most 30 minutes, and will be evaluated percent rating. Those students, who achieve less than 60% in MT, unsatisfactory grade will be assessed and cannot pass them to the oral part of the exam.

Oral part includes two topics. In the case of any part done with insufficient knowledge, will result in assessment of the exam to unsatisfactory grade.
