Pre-training in clinical pharmacy practice for third year students at Kobe Pharmaceutical University consists of three sections-pharmaceutical technology practice, dispensing and pharmacokinetics practice, and drug information and consultation practice. The dispensing part of the dispensing and pharmacokinetics practice section includes transcribing usage information into Braille for blind patients and in the pharmacokinetics part, students analyze pharmacokinetic parameters of model compounds according to a one-compartment model. In creating a medication dosage plan for several model patients, they monitor vancomycin concentrations. On evaluating students' understanding of the various pharmaceutical practices by means of a questionnaire, it was found that most students had attained a good level of understanding through the pretraining program for their pharmacy internship.
