Integration of Clinical and Scientific Principles in the Teaching of Drug-Drug Interactions.

Evaluation of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is an integral part of pharmacy practice worldwide. An understanding of the scientific mechanisms behind and the clinical implications of DDIs is important for proper management of pharmacotherapy. Here, we describe an integrated approach to teaching both aspects of DDIs as a standalone module in diverse course settings. These include on-campus and online delivery to international and local audiences in small and large classes. We describe the scientific, clinical, and integrated learning objectives of the module, and we show how these can be achieved through group projects based on published DDI case reports. © International Association of Medical Science Educators 2021.
