16
Pharmaceutical Issue

• Drug Abuse Among College Students

17
Prescribed Drugs

• The use of illegal access to prescribed drugs
  has increased especially in the college students.
  Examples such as methamphetamine and amphetamines
  and many others have been abused mainly for
  academic reasons. These drugs are used by college
  students because these stimulants provide a
  source of energy that allows one to study and
  work for days without sleep and may cause damage
  in the long run. These side effects (and later
  permanent damages) are constantly being ignored
  over academic success.

18
Access

• These type of class A and B drugs are only given
  via prescription for people usually dealing with
  ADHD and other disorders.
• Students who gain access without having this
  psychiatric disorder must have some type of
  connection with those who can access to the drug
  or are able to find illegal websites which sell
  these drugs.
• According to the University of Wisconsin study,
  about 20 percent of college students have used
  Adderall or Ritalin without a prescription
  (Dangers of stimulant abuse-University of
  Wisconsin, 2002). Partnership for a Drug-Free
  America studies show that one out ten teenagers
  used prescribed drugs illegally (2004)

19
Side Effects

• Short term
• Increased body temperature and heart rate
• Dilated pupils
• Nausea
• Muscle spasms
• Confusion
• Long term
• Paranoia
• Aggressiveness
• Extreme Anorexia
• Thinking Problems
• Visual and Auditory Hallucination
• Along with these side effects, one can suffer
  from a heart attack because of raised blood
  pressure and heart rate.

20
Discussion Questions

• We are future health care professionals and will
  be faced with issues such as these very often!
• Should people with actual prescriptions for
  disorders such as ADHD be affected so that the
  number of drug abusers may go down?
• Should the qualifications of being diagnosed ADHD
  become higher to potentially reduce drug abuse?
• Is there a correlation between ADHD patients with
  prescribed drugs and drug abusers?
• Should Universities investigate more into the
  problem of drug abuse among college students?

Pre-Pharmacy Society Proudly Presents.

• U.S.A. Schools of pharmacy Guide
• With March 1st 2011 Application Deadlines

All Schools Included in This Presentation have
Full Accreditation
23
Accreditation

• The essential purpose of the accreditation
  process is to provide a professional judgment of
  the quality of a college or school of pharmacy's
  professional program(s) and to encourage
  continued improvement thereof. Accreditation
  concerns itself with both quality assurance and
  quality enhancement.
• 120 schools and colleges with accreditation
  status
• 94 with full accreditation
• 18 with candidate status
• 8 with pre-candidate status
• Boom in pharmacy schools
• Need increase

24
Pre-Candidate Status

• A new program that has no students enrolled but
  that meets the eligibility criteria for
  accreditation
• Students would be enrolled during fall term, Year
  1
• If program matriculates students before
  receiving Pre-Candidate Status, ACPE would not
  consider granting accreditation status until
  AFTER the program has produced graduates (who
  likely would NOT be eligible for state licensure)
• The granting of Precandidate status indicates
  that a college or schools planning for the
  Doctor of Pharmacy program has taken into account
  ACPE standards and guidelines and suggests
  reasonable assurances of moving to the next step,
  that of Candidate status. 
• Granting of Precandidate status brings no rights
  or privileges of accreditation. Full public
  disclosure by the college or school of pharmacy
  of the terms and conditions of this accreditation
  status is required.

25
Candidate Status

• Once students have enrolled in a new program, but
  the program has not had a graduating class, the
  program may be granted Candidate status. 
• The granting of Candidate status denotes a
  developmental program that is expected to mature
  in accord with stated plans and within a defined
  time period. 
• Reasonable assurances are expected to be provided
  that the program may become accredited as
  programmatic experiences are gained, generally,
  by the time the first class has graduated. 
• Graduates of a class designated as having
  Candidate status have the same rights and
  privileges as graduates of an accredited program.
