Biopharmaceuticals are derived from biological sources,
either live organisms or their active components; nowadays, they are mainly
produced by biotechnologies. This book encompasses the discovery, production,
application, and regulation of biopharmaceuticals to demonstrate their research
achievement, prospects, and challenges.
The purpose of this book is to
bring together scholarly articles that highlight recent developments and trends
in pharmaceutical formulation science. This book aims to serve the need of all
individuals involved at any level in the pharmaceutical dosage form
development.
Pharmacology
is a broad discipline encompassing every aspect of the study of drugs, including
their discovery and development and the testing of their action in the body.
This book aims to explain how scientists unravel the many different ways
medicines work in the body and how this information guides the hunt for drugs of
the future.

The authors of this book look from different
angles to hypertension, sharing their new knowledge and experience in the
direction of deep understanding and more clarification of the disease providing
an invaluable resource not only for clinicians, but also for all medical
sciences students and health providers.
This book considers the basic principles of biopharmaceutics and
pharmacokinetics. It also illustrates clinical pharmacokinetic applications,
such as recirculatory models, common antimalarial drugs, and clinical
pharmacokinetic principles in critically ill patients, which are essential for
medical professionals.
In the fields of medicine, drug discovery is the
process by which new candidate medications are discovered. This book
demonstrates that various expertise are essential for drug discovery including
synthetic or natural drugs, clinical pharmacology, receptor identification, drug
metabolism, pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic research. The following 5
sections cover diverse chapter topics in drug discovery: Natural Products as
Sources of Leading Molecules in Drug Discovery; Oncology and Drug Discovery;
Receptors Involvement in Drug Discovery; Management and Development of Drugs
against Infectious Diseases; Advanced Methodology.
This note provides the details about drugs and over-the-counter
medicines. This includes side effects, dosage, and special precautions. Also
contains the details about dietary supplements and herbal remedies to learn about their
effectiveness, usual dosage, and drug interactions.
Bioactive Food Peptides in Health and Disease highlights
