Posology The word posology is derived from the Greek words 'posos' meaning how much and 'logos' meaning science. So posology is a branch of medical science which deals with dose or quantity of drugs which can be administered to a patient to get the desired pharmacological actions. The dose of a drug cannot be fixed rigidly because there are so many factors which influence the doses. These factors are age, condition of the patient, severity of the disease, tolerances both natural and acquired, idiosyncrasy, route of administration, formulation used, drug interactions and rate of elimination. The official doses (doses which are given in pharmacopæia) represent the average range of quantities suitable for adults which administered orally within 24 hours. When other routes of administration are followed the relevant appropriate dose is given. It is the responsibility of the prescriber regarding the amount of the drug to be prescribed or the frequency at which the drug to be administered. But before dispensing any prescription, it becomes the duty of the pharmacist to satisfy himself that the overdose has not been prescribed. This can be confirmed either from the prescriber or by consulting the pharmacopeia. Hello Friends This Vedio Is Competely Based On PCI Syllabus And With Simple And Lucid Language For all Students..
