Week 4: Understanding Drugs and Medicines: Last school day of 2017

Today we will spend 20 minutes reading the chapter and working on our graphic organizer together. After the 20 minutes, I would like you to finish reading the chapter and filling in the rest of the graphic organizer the way you see fit.

Then your assignment is to Answer the review questions on page 229 in a new blog post titled: "Textbook: Drugs as Medicines". Please include  a picture of your graphic organizer in the blog post along with your answers.

Here are some interesting topics to look into once you are finished. If you do look into them, make a new blog post titled "Understanding Drugs and Medicines: In-Depth questions", and write 3-5 questions that you have by comparing the new information from the websites to what you already know...

FDA Approval Process

Animal Testing Justification

Drug Production Companies (Pharmaceutical Industry) possibly being sued
