How many drugs in your head

[lrpolo]

How many drugs would you say we in our pharmaceutical psyche recognise? How many drugs are in the BNF? Hundreds? Thousands?

Hard to answer as we recognise classes of drugs rather than each individual - e.g. if it ends statin it's almost certainly a statin

Re: How many drugs in your head

I pride myself that I know a bit about every medicine used in the community.

however, gets harder as I get older.

could have a thread where we all put in one point about various drugs.

The interesting bit I like about ACE inhibitors is that enalapril is originaly derived from the enalaprids , jungle snakes. The story I have is that a squibb sponsored tour of the amazon found that a snake bite profoundly lowered BP and the venom gave the parent molecule.

What's you snippet. We already have pharout's treatise on statins.

We could have a thread in the clinical pharmacy forum (a sticky one if you like) names drug information or something like that. Do you want me to start it and move relevant posts into the thread or start from scratch?

Let me know what you want.......

There's no definite chart that could give on how many drugs they are...
