What you'll learn

At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Examine the regulations related to the labeling, marketing, and oversight of vitamins.

  2. Identify all water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins along with their associated deficiency conditions.

  3. Determine the depletion of vitamins that can result from the use of prescription drugs.

  4. Explain the need for vitamin supplementation in particular groups, such as those dealing with alcoholism, acid suppression, and those who have undergone bariatric surgery.


Webinar description

By discussing the therapeutic use of these vitamins and the ever-expanding information for their utilization. It is a little over 110 years ago that Casimir Funk elucidated the need for “vital amines” that were isolated from the foods we eat. Vitamin supplementation in America for the most part, like most everything in America is done to excess! Many prescription products are known to cause vitamin depletion, and hence the need for supplementation. The pharmacist is the best choice for assisting with nutrient depletions caused by drug therapy.

I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
