Pharmacology and Toxicology

Pharmacology is the study of how drugs interact with biological systems to produce therapeutic effects. It encompasses drug mechanisms of action, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and drug-receptor interactions. Toxicology, on the other hand, focuses on the adverse effects of chemicals and drugs on living organisms. It assesses the safety, toxicity, and risk factors associated with drug exposure, guiding safe dosages and identifying potential hazards to human health.
