Ontario Paramedic Pharmacology
Master the clinical application, pharmacokinetics, and decision-making frameworks for medications within the Ontario PCP scope of practice.
Like Duolingo, but for Ontario Paramedic Pharmacology. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.
71 levels across 8 sections, about 142 minutes end to end, roughly 28 days at five minutes a day. It moves through High-Impact Field Interventions, Respiratory Pharmacology & Airway, Cardiovascular Management, Analgesia and Symptom Control, Metabolic and Allergic Crises, Toxicology and Overdose, Pharmacology Theory for the Field, and The Ontario Regulatory Framework. It assumes you already know the basics.

Key ideas in Ontario Paramedic Pharmacology
- ASA inhibits COX-1 to prevent platelets from sticking to an existing clot
- Nitroglycerin primarily causes venodilation, which pools blood in the periphery
- Stopping thrombus propagation maintains what little blood flow remains
- Reducing preload lowers the heart's workload and its demand for oxygen
- Early antiplatelet action is directly linked to lower mortality rates in STEMI
- Systemic venous dilation is more clinically significant than coronary dilation
- The clinical rationale for immediate ASA administration in suspected STEMI
- The primary hemodynamic mechanism of Nitroglycerin in cardiac chest pain
- Salbutamol targets Beta-2 receptors specifically located in bronchial smooth muscle
- Activation of these receptors triggers rapid relaxation of the airway
- Beta-2 stimulation is the mechanism for fast-acting relief in asthma or COPD
- The Six Rights provide a systematic checklist to catch errors before they reach the patient
- Verifying the right dose and route are critical steps after selecting the medication
- Documentation is the final 'right' that completes the clinical administration loop
- The cellular target and result of Salbutamol administration
- The standard sequence of the Six Rights during medication prep
