Physical therapists realize that drugs can influence their patients’
responses to physical rehabilitation. Medications can provide
beneficial effects that act synergistically with the rehabilitation
treatment, or they can generate side effects that adversely affect
rehabilitation goals. Hence, many therapists want to learn more
about pharmacology and how drug therapy interacts with rehabilitation.
This course will use a case-based approach to address specific
medications and how these medications affect patients receiving
physical therapy. Patient cases will be introduced, and questions
will be proposed about the drugs taken by each patient. The audience will then participate in a group discussion to answer these
questions and determine how drug therapy can impact the patient’s responses to physical rehabilitation.
