Introduction to Therapeutic Drug Monitoring provides a practical introduction to the principles and clinical applications of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM). The course explores how drug concentration measurements are used to optimize medication therapy, improve treatment outcomes, and minimize toxicity. Learners will gain insight into the clinical use of TDM through real-world applications and case studies, with a particular focus on aminoglycosides and vancomycin. By the end of the course, participants will be better equipped to interpret TDM data and support safe, evidence-based patient care.
