Competency-based Practical Manual of Pharmacology, 2nd Edition is a practical manual built around the National Medical Commission's Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) curriculum, and this edition is based on the CBME Curriculum Guidelines, 2024. It provides chapters for the competencies required for pharmacology practical and small group teaching, with each exercise tied to its NMC competency number and marked where the competency is certifiable. The manual covers drug nomenclature and sources of drug information; solid, liquid, semisolid, inhalational and parenteral dosage forms and drug delivery devices; parenteral administration and setting an intravenous drip; pharmacovigilance and adverse drug reaction monitoring; oral rehydration salt solution; prescription writing and prescription audit; P-drugs; the essential medicine list; drug promotional literature; drug interactions; dose calculation; communication with patients; interaction with pharmaceutical representatives; and dependence-producing and over-the-counter drugs. Three chapters cover the AETCOM (Attitude, Ethics and Communication) modules specific to pharmacology, and the National List of Essential Medicines 2022 is included as an annexure. Chapters open with the relevant competencies, use clinical case-based scenarios in the majority of exercises, include attitude and communication skill exercises with clinical scenarios, and carry a signature column for faculty sign-off, so the manual doubles as a practical record. Who This Book Is For: MBBS students (Second Professional): for pharmacology practicals, small group teaching and the internal and viva assessment of pharmacology competencies. Pharmacology faculty and tutors: for running competency-based practical and small group sessions and recording certifiable competencies. Why This Book Helps: Maps every exercise to a competency: each practical shows its NMC competency number and whether it is certifiable, so nothing in the practical curriculum is missed. Teaches prescribing skills directly: prescription writing, prescription audit, P-drugs and dose calculation are worked as structured exercises. Uses real cases: clinical case-based scenarios in most chapters connect drug knowledge to patient situations. Covers AETCOM for pharmacology: three dedicated chapters address the foundation of bioethics, healthcare as a right and a bioethics case study. Works as a logbook: a signature column lets faculty sign off completed exercises as a practical record. Key Features: Twenty chapters for pharmacology practical and small group learning, plus three chapters for the pharmacology AETCOM modules. Every exercise linked to its NMC CBME competency number, with certifiable competencies flagged. Clinical case-based scenarios in the majority of chapters, with attitude and communication skill exercises. Structured exercises on prescription writing, prescription audit, P-drugs, dose calculation and pharmacovigilance and ADR reporting. National List of Essential Medicines 2022 included as an annexure; faculty signature column for practical record-keeping.
