Module Overview

The gastrointestinal (GI) system comprises the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum), large intestine (cecum, colon), rectum, anus, and associated exocrine glands—the salivary glands, pancreas, and gallbladder.

Pharmacologic agents targeting the GI system are used to manage conditions such as gastric hyperacidity, peptic ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), motility disorders (including gastroparesis, constipation, and diarrhea), and emesis.

This module concludes with an assessment to evaluate your comprehension and reinforce key concepts.
