« back to classes page
ClassGraphic Have you ever tried to read the insert package on your prescription medicine and been left overwhelmed or confused?  Now you can learn how to interpret all that information and understand better how effective the drug is, what side effects are possible, and how to take it.  You will also hear about how the FDA reviews and approves drugs through studies and clinical trials, and how drugs are classified. In the final session, participants can bring in specific drug labels and inserts to discuss in class.  Class leader John McLane is a pharmaceutical clinical scientist with forty years of experience in the industry, working with companies and the FDA.
