Pharmacodynamics

The study of pharmacodynamics encompasses understanding how drugs interact with the body, including both specific and nonspecific interactions. It delves into how drugs can either stimulate or block biological processes through interactions with enzymes or receptors, where the concepts of agonists and antagonists come into play.
