Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacokinetics
is the analysis of drug assimilation, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
The apparent concept in pharmacokinetics
is drug clearance, namely, the elimination of drugs from the body. It can be
clearly defined as the movement of the drug inside our body. It can describe
what changes our body has sustained after taking that drug. Pharmacodynamics
is described as how our body responds to the drug. The study of the connection
between the concentration of drugs and their effects is known as pharmacodynamics.
It is the study of pharmacology
that sustains the biochemical and physiological effects of drugs and their
conduct in our bodies.
