Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology is the study of how substances, including drugs and chemicals, affect living organisms. Toxicology focuses on identifying harmful effects and understanding how toxins can damage health, while applied pharmacology examines how drugs work in the body to treat diseases. Together, these fields help assess risks, develop safe medications, and ensure effective treatments. They play a crucial role in public health, guiding safety regulations and informing medical practices to protect individuals from harmful exposures while maximizing the benefits of therapeutic drugs.
