- The chemicals with medicinal properties are then termed pharmaceuticals.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
- The concept of medicines has been around for a long time with ancient people using specific plants and species as a form of medicine.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
- Modern-day pharmacology is involved in the efficient method of drug manufacturing by the use of natural sources and modern technology.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
- Pharmacology might be confused with pharmacy, but it should be understood that pharmacology deals with the research, discovery, and manufacturing of chemicals with biological effects that affect the cellular and systemic function of the organism.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
- The field also deals with drug composition and properties, synthesis and drug design, molecular and cellular mechanisms, signal transductions, molecular diagnostic, and biochemistry.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
- Biochemistry, in particular, is particularly important in pharmacology as the knowledge of the biochemical composition of a living organism is essential in order to assign an appropriate drug for treatment.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
- Pharmacology focuses on the determination of the mechanism of actions of different groups of drugs which provides a better understanding of the molecular functioning of the body.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t
