Total parenteral nutrition is a medication used to manage and treat malnourishment. It is in the nutrition class of drugs.
TPN is a mixture of separate components which contain lipid emulsions, dextrose, amino acids, vitamins, electrolytes, minerals, and trace elements. Clinicians should adjust TPN composition to fulfill individual patients' needs. The main three macronutrients are lipids emulsions, proteins, and dextrose.
Pharmacy education in India
Pharmacy education in India began in the late 19th century and has expanded significantly since then. Currently there are over 2,500 pharmacy institutions in India enrolling over 260,000 students annually. Key developments include the establishment of the first pharmacy degree program in 1937, the Pharmacy Act of 1948 that regulates the profession, and the founding of the National Institutes of Pharmacy (NIPERs) starting in 1998 to offer advanced pharmacy education and research. The future of pharmacy education in India looks bright with a focus on self-reliance in drug production, innovative policies, strong intellectual property protections, and incorporating new technologies like data analytics.
Pharmacy profession
The document provides an overview of the pharmacy profession through history. It discusses how the role of pharmacists has evolved from compounding medications to a focus on clinical services like counseling patients, monitoring drug therapies, and preventing medication-related problems. The modern pharmacist's responsibilities include dispensing drugs, providing drug information, and advising on proper medication use. Pharmacists work in various settings like community pharmacies, hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare. The future of the profession remains focused on pharmaceutical care and positive patient outcomes.
Posology
Posology is the branch of medical science that deals with determining the appropriate dose of a drug for a patient. The dose cannot be fixed rigidly as it depends on various factors like age, sex, body weight, and presence of disease. The official doses listed in pharmacopoeias represent average doses suitable for adults administered orally in 24 hours. When considering other routes of administration or patient characteristics, the dose needs to be adjusted accordingly using formulas based on age, body weight, or surface area to calculate the appropriate dose for that individual. Failure to adjust doses properly based on these factors can result in toxic effects or subtherapeutic responses.

Classification of drugs
- 2. Classifications drugs Drugs can be categorized in a number of ways. In pharmacology, a drug can be classified by its chemical activity or by the condition that it treats. In general, drugs are classified based on 1. Therapeutic classification 2. Pharmacologic classification (based on mechanism of action and mode of action) 3. Chemical classification 4. Amalgamated classification 5. Legal classification (Controlled Substances, Drug Schedules, and Teratogenic Risks)
