Pharmacoeconomic
The knowledge of : History, source, Physical & chemical Properties, compounding, biochemical & physiological effects, mechanism of actions, absorption, distribution, biotransformation & excretion, therapeutic & other uses of drugs (Benet, 1997)
The science of substances used to prevent, diagnose and treat disease ( = medical / clinical pharmacology) (Katzung,1997)
Pharmacology
•The study of absorption, distributions, biotransformation and excretion of drugs•What the body do to the drugs•Fate of the drug in the body•Involved in how the concentration of drug in the body varies with time
Pharmacokinetics
•The study of biochemical and physiological effects of drugs and their mechanism of action•What the drug do to the body
Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacy•The scientific study about preparing, compounding and dispensing of drugs
Pharmacognosy •The branch of pharmacology that study about sources of drugs
Clinical Pharmacolo
gy•The scientific study of drugs in man
Pharmacotherapeutics
The study of the drugs use in the prevention & treatment of disease
• Stimulate / depress biochemical or physiological functions relief of symptoms• Alter the course of disease• Eliminate the pathogenic cells / organisms
Some mechanism of actions of drugs
Pharmacogenetics
Study relationship of genetics factors to variations in drug response (Brody, 1998)
• Biochemical – genes govern the production enzymes• Anatomical – mydriatics induced glaucoma in patients with a shallow anterior eye chamber
Concerned with drugs responses that are governed by heredity (Laurence & Bennet, 1987)
Inherited causal factors are :
Toxicology
Aspect of pharmacology that deals with AEs of drugs
Concerned with
Chemical agent that effect the living process
Any substance used to modify physiological system OR pathological condition for the benefit of the recipient
So… what is drug?
Drugs…
•meet the health of the majority of population
Essential drugs
•marketed by any producers under non-proprietary (=INN) / branded names•exp: paracetamol
Generic drugs
•pharmaceutical products marketed under branded names
•exp: Panadol, tempra
Patent drugs (branded drug)
a. on-ethical drugs sold without R/• Unlimited drugs (B-class) = OTC drugs
• Without cautionary labeling
• Limited drugs (W-class) = semi OTC drugs• With cautionary labeling• Pharmacy/licenced drug store
b. Ethical drugs sold with R/• Potent drugs (G-class)• Narcotics drugs (O-class)
Drugs in the market: classification…
