Is Pharmacology Difficult Podcast INTRODUCTION/LAUNCH EPISODE

Would love to know your opinions & expectations -Dr Radhika Vijay

Welcome all to IS PHARMACOLOGY DIFFICULT Podcast! I am Dr Radhika Vijay, I welcome you all to. History is history, Prehistorically people used crude drugs, substances to cure their ailments, diseases, etc. They superstitiously believed that most of the diseases were due to excess of bile and blood in body. Slowly, eventually, scientific belief and observation took over this old school of thought. In 18th century in British continent, literature evolved as a product of many  experiments etc, the old book evolved is named as "Materia medica". Its a pioneer in literature in this subject. Still theoretical basis and hypothesis lacked to describe mechanism of action and true nature of drugs. Pioneering in this field was done by Francois Magendie, Claude Bernard, Rudolf Buccheim and Oswald Schiemedberg in variety of manner. From then till date, there has been revolutionary changes in this field.
Pharmacology is broken in greek terms, Pharmacon and Logos. its the study of chemical substances that alter mechanism in living beings through chemical processes by binding to the regulatory molecules. Further I will be describing more aspects of this branch of science, and its coverage widespread to affect living systems of humans and animals, also drug use, drug effects, etc.Finally I will derive a proper definition for the term "PHARMACOLOGY", leaving a quest to know more especially about the term "Drug", but that will unfold another story in another episode. With these remarks, i mark the conclusion of today's episode.
