Toxicology- Pharmacology

Overview

Toxicology and pharmacology are two closely related core disciplines of pharmaceutical science that together explain how substances interact with living systems. Pharmacology is the study of how drugs and chemicals act on the body, including their mechanisms, effects, and the way the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes, and eliminates them. Toxicology focuses on the harmful effects of substances, characterizing the doses and conditions under which they cause damage and the mechanisms behind that toxicity. A central principle linking the two is the dose-response relationship, the idea that the dose largely determines whether a substance is therapeutic or harmful. Understanding both is essential for developing medicines that are effective while remaining safe. Within the journal's coverage of Advanced Pharmaceutical Science And Technology, related work addresses the way dose modulates physiological responses and the development and safety of therapeutic agents, reflecting the interplay between beneficial and harmful effects. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to toxicology and pharmacology, supporting readers interested in drug mechanisms and effects, dose-response relationships, and the safety assessment that connects the study of how drugs work with the study of how they can cause harm.
