Pharmacotherapy for Cardiovascular Disorders Neurological disorders.

2. Discussion: Pharmacotherapy for Cardiovascular Disorders Neurological disorders, such as headaches, seizure disorders, sleep disorders, depression, and dementia can present several complications for patients of all ages. These disorders affect patients physically and emotionally, impacting judgment, school and/or job performance, and relationships with family and friends. Since these disorders may have drastic effects on patients’ lives, it is important for advanced practice nurses to effectively manage patient care. With patient factors and medical history in mind, it is the advanced practice nurse’s responsibility to manage the diagnosis, treatment, and education of patients with neurological disorders. To prepare: • Review this week’s media presentation on pharmacology for the nervous system. • Select one of the following neurological disorders: headaches, seizure disorders, sleep disorders, depression, or dementia. Consider the types of drugs that would be prescribed to patients to treat symptoms associated with this disorder. • Select one of the following factors: genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, or behavior. • Reflect on how this factor might impact the effects of prescribed drugs, as well as any measures you might take to help reduce negative side effects. With these thoughts in mind: Post a 2-page description of the neurological disorder you selected including types of drugs that would be prescribed to patients to treat associated symptoms. Then, explain how the factor you selected might impact the effects of prescribed drugs, as well as any measures you might take to help reduce negative side effects.
