MoA (Mechanism of Action)

Mechanism of Action (MoA) refers to how a drug or treatment produces its effects in the body. It describes the specific biological processes or targets it interacts with, such as proteins, enzymes, or cells, to achieve its intended outcome. Understanding MoA helps explain how a medication works, why it’s effective, and potential side effects. Essentially, it maps out the steps by which a substance influences bodily functions to treat a condition or alleviate symptoms.
