Medicinal Chemistry

Understanding the general principles of drug action at the molecular level is vital for many in the medical profession. This digital guide focuses on the physical, chemical, and biochemical properties of drug substances; relationships between chemical structure and pharmacological activity; molecular basis for drug-receptor interactions; and physical chemical basis for Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity (ADMET). Author and professor of Medicinal Chemistry Dr. Ronny Priefer saw the need for this guide to support students in one of the most challenging courses in a health and medical education. Add this valuable quick reference tool to your support material for a price that is unmatched for a medical publication of this caliber.
