PHARMACOLOGY

The department's aim is to provide quality education in pharmacology and therapeutics to medical students, as well as to evaluate and train graduates and postgraduates to conduct fundamental research of recognised excellence.

Pharmacology is the study of medications. The primary goal of pharmacology is to give scientific data that allows one to select a drug treatment with established efficacy and safety from among the different possibilities available to the patient.
Pharmacology plays an essential part in the pharmaceutical sector because drug discovery and clinical trials are all based on pharmacological concepts. Like other biomedical sciences, pharmacology's boundaries are expanding, and it has more than other fields. Pharmacogenomics, Pharmacoepidemiology, and Pharmacoeconomics are the latest additions to the fringe.
