Pharmacology is the study of how drugs interact with living organisms, including humans, to produce therapeutic effects. It involves understanding the mechanisms of action of drugs, their side effects, interactions with other drugs, and the ways in which they are metabolized and excreted by the body. Pharmacology is a multidisciplinary field that combines aspects of biochemistry, physiology, molecular biology, and other scientific disciplines to develop and improve the efficacy and safety of drugs for treating various diseases and medical conditions. Researchers in pharmacology work to discover and develop new drugs, understand their effects on the body, and improve existing treatments through more targeted and personalized approaches.
