This document outlines the syllabus for a Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry course. It includes 14 units that cover topics such as impurities in pharmaceutical substances, acids, bases and buffers, electrolytes, dental products, gastrointestinal agents, and radiopharmaceuticals. Key terms are defined, such as acids, bases, buffers, isotonic solutions, electrolytes, and others. The units cover specific compounds and agents including acidifiers, antacids, cathartics, antimicrobials, expectorants, emetics, haematinics, poisons, and antidotes. Radiopharmaceuticals, radioactivity, half-life, and radioisotopes are also defined.

CHEMISTRY

10. Definition :
Study of pharmaceutical applications of the
inorganic compounds led to the establishment
of a new technique called pharmaceutical
inorganic chemistry.
It deals with the study of preparation,
standards of purity, limit test for determining
quality ,purity and storage conditions of all
inorganic compounds.

39. TERMINOLOGY
Cathartics Cathartic is a substance that accelerates defecation
Antimicrobials A drug used to treat a microbial infection
Expectorants Substance which promotes the secretion of sputum by the air passages
Emetics Agent that produces nausea and vomiting
Haematinics Substance that increases the hemoglobin content of the blood
Poison Substance that is capable of causing the illness or death of a living organism when
introduced or absorbed.
Antidote Substance taken or given to counteract a particular poison.
Astringents Substance that will cause body tissues to shrink, and helps to control bleeding and
secretions
Radiopharmaceuticals Radiopharmaceuticals are the radioactive substances or radioactive drugs for
diagnostic or therapeutic interventions
Radio activity Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of radiation in the form of particles or high
energy photons resulting from a nuclear reaction
Half life The time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value
Radio isotopes Elements having same atomic number but have different mass number
