Department of Pharmacology


Pharmacology is a branch of medicine and pharmaceutical sciences which is concerned with the study of drug or medication action, where a drug can be broadly or narrowly defined as any man-made, natural, or endogenous (from within the body) molecule which exerts a biochemical or physiological effect on the cell, tissue, organ, or organism.

Pharmacology of drugs, their mechanisms of action; therapeutic uses, adverse effects and drug interaction are covered in theoretical classes.

However, to appreciate such principles and the importance of testing drugs for their effects, practical classes aim to illustrate such effects on isolated and whole animal preparations.

In this laboratory classes, students learn how to handle animals and learn the pharmacokinetic principles.

In addition, students investigate some of the responses of guinea pig ileum preparation to several drugs, ranging from dose–response studies to demonstration of selective antagonism.
