Medicinal chemistry is a complex topic. Written in an easy to follow and conversational style, Basic Concepts in Medicinal Chemistry focuses on the fundamental concepts that govern the discipline of medicinal chemistry as well as how and why these concepts are essential to therapeutic decisions. The book emphasizes functional group analysis and the basics of drug structure evaluation. In a systematic fashion, learn how to identify and evaluate the functional groups that comprise the structure of a drug molecule and their influences on solubility, absorption, acid/base character, binding interactions, and stereochemical orientation. Relevant Phase I and Phase II metabolic transformations are also discussed for each functional group. Key features include: • Discussions on the roles and characteristics of organic functional groups, including the identification of acidic and basic functional groups. • How to solve problems involving pH, pKa, and ionization; salts and solubility; drug binding interactions; stereochemistry; and drug metabolism. • Numerous examples and expanded discussions for complex concepts. • Therapeutic examples that link the importance of medicinal chemistry to pharmacy and healthcare practice. • An overview of structure activity relationships (SARs) and concepts that govern drug design. • Review questions and practice problems at the end of each chapter that allow readers to test their understanding, with the answers provided in an appendix. Whether you are just starting your education toward a career in a healthcare field or need to brush up on your organic chemistry concepts, this book is here to help you navigate medicinal chemistry.

I remember what it was like to study for the NAPLEX. Overwhelming doesn't begin to describe the feeling. Where do you start? How do you prioritize and review for this gigantic exam? When I am preparing to take pharmacy exams, I have a very difficult time learning and retaining information from massive review books. I find myself reading for 5-10 minutes and my mind begins to wander, retaining nothing of what I just read. After years of practice and test taking (NAPLEX, BCPS, CGP etc.), I have found that I learn most efficiently by memorizing information in short important bullet points. In this study guide, I have selected the most commonly used medication classes and have provided you with my most highly testable pearls on each class. In this book, I cover over 150 medication classes which includes nearly 400 medications! I have created bullet points which will help you review more efficiently and not waste your limited study time. This resource is not intended to be a package insert for every medication, but rather a way to try to prioritize your study process and understand the major "nuggets" of information that you must know to help you pass the NAPLEX. The intent is to give you a brief, incredibly helpful review of the most important medications you will likely be tested on the NAPLEX exam. I truly hope this book helps you pass the NAPLEX the first time! NAPLEX is a registered trademark of NABP. Meded101 and this study guide are not affiliated or endorsed by NABP or the NAPLEX Exam.
