OPRA: Therapeutics & patient care
Therapeutics and patient care is the largest OPRA domain — roughly 45% of the exam — so it's where focused practice pays off most.
High-yield areas
- Cardiovascular (hypertension, heart failure, lipids, anticoagulation)
- Respiratory (asthma & COPD), endocrine (diabetes, thyroid)
- Infectious diseases & antimicrobial choice
- Pain, CNS/mental health, GI, renal and women's health
How to study it
Pair each condition's Crash Course concept with a set of scenario questions, then let spaced repetition resurface what you miss. Because it's the biggest domain, give it the most time.
