The study associated with the biochemical and physiological effects of pharmaceutical drugs is known as pharmacodynamics. The field of pharmacology which studies the way a living organism affects the drug administered to it, is called pharmacokinetics. It is concerned with the analysis of the chemical metabolism, and the discovery of the fate of the drug administered to the body from the time of its administration up to the point of its complete elimination from the body. The technique combining both pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics is called pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling or PK/PD modelling. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the areas of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. The various advancements in these fields are glanced at herein and their applications as well as ramifications are looked at in detail. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of these disiplines.
