This module has two broad headings, recreational drug pharmaco-toxicology and chemical/biological agent toxicology. Students will study the clinical syndromes and the underpinning basic science principles of drug actions as well as the basis of the management for patients in this phase of care. The module will enable students to understand the mechanism of action of antidotes that are used in the prehospital phase and will provide the clinician with a scientific background to the toxidromes and the diverse set of presentations that exist in the context of recreational drug pharmacology and toxicology. The module will also cover the pharmacology and clinical syndromes associated with 'deliberate-release' chemical and biological warfare agents - including traditional and more modern agents - and will develop a pragmatic approach to the identification and management of these.
