► Need to review high-yield pharmacology for the USMLE without jumping between dozens of individual lectures?

This Pharmacology Crash Course brings together key concepts and drug classes into one structured review for medical students. Start with the principles of pharmacokinetics and drug absorption, then move through autonomic and cardiovascular pharmacology, coagulation, diabetes medications, CNS drugs, and antimicrobial pharmacology.

The goal is to connect the foundational principles of pharmacology with the major drug classes you’ll encounter throughout medical school and USMLE preparation.

🧪 PART 1: Pharmacokinetics & Drug Absorption

Build your foundation with pharmacokinetics before diving into individual medications. Review drug kinetics, hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, absorption and distribution, pKa, and drug solubility.

🧠 PART 2: Autonomic & Cardiovascular Pharmacology

Review the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system before applying those concepts to cardiovascular drugs. Explore beta blockers and medications used to manage hypertension, including diuretics.

🩸 PART 3: Coagulation & Antiplatelet Drugs

Review the pharmacology of blood coagulation and then focus on antiplatelet therapy, including acetylsalicylic acid (ASA/aspirin).

💉 PART 4: Diabetes Medications

Review different insulin types and glycemic excursions before moving into important non-insulin diabetes medications, including secretagogues and biguanides.

💊 PART 5: CNS Pharmacology

Explore sedative and hypnotic drugs, then take a closer look at benzodiazepines and their place within CNS pharmacology.

🦠 PART 6: Antimicrobial Pharmacology

Finish the crash course with an introduction to antimicrobial pharmacology and review another major area of pharmacology relevant throughout medical training.

Whether you're preparing for USMLE Step 1, reviewing before a medical school pharmacology exam, or refreshing key drug concepts, this compilation provides a structured way to revisit important pharmacology topics in one session.

Use the chapters below to jump directly to the topic you need, or watch from beginning to end for a progressive review from fundamental pharmacokinetic concepts to major drug classes.
