This course will focus on the development of an understanding of self-care - including its scope and limitations in the U.S. healthcare system, and a knowledge base regarding over-the-counter (OTC) medications (both traditional and complementary/alternative - eg, herbs, nutritional supplements, homeopathics) and home diagnostic/medication therapy management tests/aids. Further, students will learn how to interact with patients towards the appropriate selection and use of those products.
