Here's the information students need to know about how drugs work and how they can affect athletic performance. Through "real life" scenarios, students gain insights into the application of pharmacology in their clinical practice—from assisting an athlete who is taking a new medication to recognizing drug-related side effects when a negative reaction is occurring to handling instances of drug abuse. Beginning with an overview of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, the text presents prescription and over-the-counter medications in relation to the injuries or health conditions athletic trainers commonly encounter. Frequently abused substances such as amphetamines, herbals, and anabolic steroids are also addressed. Legal and ethical issues of drug use are presented, such as HIPAA–mandated privacy issues, drug testing, and which drugs are deemed as acceptable or banned according to NCAA and US Olympic standard.

Persistent pain in older people is a serious problem that is often undermanaged.1 Osteoarthritis disproportionately affects older people, yet they are often under-represented in trials. Furthermore, their response to analgesics may differ from that of younger patients owing to altered pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.2  

Acetaminophen (N-acetyl-p-aminophenol, APAP, or paracetamol, PARA) is widely used for its analgesic and antipyretic properties in many over-the-counter formulations in both adults and children [Articles:21054454, 23719833]. APAP can be synthesized in the body through O-dealkylation of the prodrug phenacetin, a pain-killer that was withdrawn from the market due to nephrotoxicity and carcinogenesis [Article:7002186]. At the therapeutic adult dose of 1-2 g/day, oral APAP is indicated for fever and mild to moderate acute pain conditions [Article:23719833]. Administration of acetaminophen via intravenous route has become increasingly widespread and has been used as a safe and effective antipyretic and analgesic agent [Article:25521845]. Maximum recommended therapeutic dose of APAP is 4 g/day in adults and 50-75 mg/kg/day in children. Consumption of a single dose greater than 7 g in an adult and 150 mg/kg in a child is considered potentially toxic to the liver and kidneys due to the highly active metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI)[Article:22998987].
