Students will describe the most commonly prescribed drugs for your assigned condition. Provide evidence by sharing clinical guidelines, research articles, or other scholarly materials to support your findings. You will identify barriers to practice or additional issues related to the condition and the use of pharmacologic treatment, including potential issues related to cultural diversity and healthcare literacy. The length of your presentation should be between 8-12 minutes total.Read the following article and incorporate evidence from it as a part of your presentation: Dreischulte, T., & Guthrie, B. (2012).

You will create five (5) multiple choice or true-false questions created from your presentation content. Include the questions in the presentation, but DO NOT give the answers. Instead, provide the answers to the questions you have created in a comment to the Assignment; this allows your instructor to see the correct answers. The PowerPoint presentation and questions are due by Sunday 11:59 p.m. MT at the end of Week 6.In Week 7, you will post your Kaltura presentation that you have created to the discussion area, without the answers to the multiple choice questions. Please post the presentation to the discussion area by Sunday 11:59 p.m. MT at the end of Week 6 to facilitate a robust discussion.Participating in the Discussion: You will be required to respond to at least three other students, who have no responses to their posting.** In your post, you will discuss a drug that could be prescribed for the condition DIFFERENT than those presented. Come up with a different treatment plan from the Walmart or Target $4 RX list, and offer reasons for the change or if the drug is not on the list, why? Use references to support your responses. You should also answer the presenter’s five questions.Three responses to a peer’s presentations are due by Thursday 11:59 p.m. MT of Week 7 so that the presenting student can interact with you.**If all students have a response, then choose the student with the least responses to their posting.Leading the Discussion: You must respond to any student who posts to you by THURSDAY regarding your case with a substantial response, either answering their questions or noting their response and acting as leader. You also must respond to any faculty responses to your initial posting if posted by THURSDAY. Use references to support your responses. All FINAL responses to your initial posts must be completed by Sunday, 11:59 p.m. MT.
