drug synthesis

Drug synthesis is the process of creating new chemical compounds that can be used as medications. Scientists start with simple molecules and use chemical reactions to build complex structures that can interact with the body. This involves understanding how different molecules behave and how they can be modified to enhance their effectiveness and safety. The goal is to develop drugs that can treat diseases or improve health. Throughout this process, rigorous testing is performed to ensure that the new drugs are both effective and safe for human use before they are approved for market distribution.
