METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF TEACHING SPECIALIZATION “QUALITY CONTROL OF MEDICINES” FOR STUDENTS OF PHARMACEUTICAL FACULTY OF EXTERNAL FORM OF EDUCATION

Abstract

The article adduces the ways to solve the main problems faced by teachers working with students of pharmaceutical faculty of external form of learning in teaching of control quality of medicines; analyzes the main issues that can affect the performance of the teaching of external form of education. The research is based on the study of materials obtained from open sources of information and authors’ own experience. The article presents modern technologies of teaching and testing of students on Quality control of medicines, approved at the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Since the quality of the drug is laid down at the stage of pharmaceutical development, the student must clearly know the elements of pharmaceutical development and pharmaceutical analysis. The purpose of control quality of medicines is to: learn general methods of analysis of substances of medicinal substances and to determine their qualities in appearance, solubility and reaction of the environment in accordance with the requirements of the State Pharmacopoeia (SPhU); to study and explain the physical and physico-chemical methods of analysis of organic medicinal products; to be able to carry out reactions of identication of substances of medicinal substances by cations and anions in accordance with the requirements of SPhU; to use chemical methods for the identication of medicinal products of organic structure by analytical-functional groups; to determine the physical constants of organic substances for the identication and purication of medicinal products; to use the denition of refractive index and spefic rotation of solutions of drugs for their identication and purity; to practice the general requirements of the SPhU for the testing of the maximum content of impurities; to be able to quantify the content of medicinal substances in the substance by different methods; to be able to conduct qualitative and quantitative rapid-analysis of active substances in extemporal dosage forms and validation of analytical methods. Detailed and thorough acquaintance with the basics of the discipline of Control quality of medicines, gives the opportunity to more fully master the studied material, realize the scientific and creative potential of students, enrich their knowledge, which will be directly used in their practical activities. The proposed method allows the teacher to successfully build an educational process, which ultimately positively affects the overall mastering of the course.
