Pharmaceutical Biochemistry

Pharmaceutical biochemistry is the branch of biochemistry that studies how molecules in the body interact with drugs. It investigates the nature of binding between drugs and receptors and the cellular mechanisms of drug action. Research in pharmaceutical biochemistry is used to develop better drugs and treatments for a range of diseases and conditions. It is also important for understanding the causes of adverse drug reactions and toxicity, and informing the development of better drug delivery systems. Pharmaceutical biochemistry is essential to improving human health, as it is at the core of understanding and developing treatments that can improve lives.
