"Advanced Pharmacology" aimed to deliver such topics of drugs which are very important to be know by any healthcare professional, but found rarely in any books or library. Complete idea of publishing it, is to provide readers a good platform to study the rare topics in pharmacology.This book is recommended for MBBS, MD (Pharmacology), DM (Clinical Pharmacology), Pharm D., M. Pharm and B. Pharm students or any other healthcare professionals. The book is a strong learning aid for post graduate teaching and also helps clinicians or other heathcare professionals understand the pharmacological basis of pharmacotherapeutics through thematic flow diagrams and logical explanations for specialized topics in pharmacology to ease the reading. Book is divided into three sections; Initial two sections of the book deal with basic aspects of clinical pharmacology, regulation and therapeutics; also address the most recent advances in the field. Third section is thoroughly updated to provide readers with an ideal reference that covers wide range of neglected but important topics. It also provides a rich collection of material on critical areas such as medication errors, rational use of drugs, self medication, drug compliance etc. Several other essential regulations framed in India for drugs have been incorporated in the chapters drug policy, drug pricing, orphan drugs etc. Further, critical issues in pharmacology like usage of drugs in pregnancy, renal and hepatic complications, drug-drug interactions etc. are also addressed in a point specific manner to simplify the language to readers. Emerging topics in medical fields like regenerative medicine, nanomedicine, electronic prescribing (e-Rx), drug surveillance systems like Pharmacovigilance, Haemovigilance, Materiovigilance etc. are well explained. Hope, "Advanced Pharmacology", will fulfill the demand and need of healthcare professionals by covering the important and rare topics on drugs.

Welcome to Advanced Pharmacology - II (MPL 201T). This comprehensive textbook is designed to provide students with a deep understanding of advanced concepts in pharmacology, focusing on various therapeutic agents and their mechanisms of action. In this book, we delve into the intricate molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the pharmacological actions of a wide array of drugs. From endocrine pharmacology to chemotherapy, gastrointestinal pharmacology, immunopharmacology, and free radicals pharmacology, each section offers detailed insights into the pharmacotherapy of various diseases. The syllabus covers a broad spectrum of topics, starting with Endocrine Pharmacology, where we explore the molecular and cellular mechanisms of hormones such as growth hormone, prolactin, thyroid hormones, insulin, and sex hormones. Additionally, we examine drugs used in the treatment of endocrine disorders, including anti-thyroid drugs, oral hypoglycemic agents, oral contraceptives, and corticosteroids. Moving on to Chemotherapy, we delve into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of antimicrobial agents, including ß-lactams, aminoglycosides, quinolones, and macrolide antibiotics. Furthermore, we discuss antifungal, antiviral, and anti-TB drugs, along with strategies to combat drug resistance.

The fascinating world of “Advanced Pharmacology I" is the subject to explore. This book takes us on an exciting journey through the rapidly evolving science of pharmacology, where novel concepts and groundbreaking findings are transforming our understanding of and reliance on medicine. The subject is designed to strengthen the basic knowledge in the field of pharmacology and to impart recent advances in the drugs used for the treatment of various diseases. In addition, this subject helps the students to understand the concepts of Pharmacological and mechanisms involved. This book's rigorous planning ensures a thorough comprehension of the subject matter by covering a broad variety of subjects that line up with the drug actions. We go into the fundamentals of controlled medication delivery systems in Unit I. We discuss general pharmacology, in which we discuss drug development, drug distribution, drug safety, and effectiveness. Further, the new drug development and its stages have been considered. In the next chapter of Unit 1, the concepts of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are presented. In pharmacokinetics, we investigate the drug's absorption, distribution, biotransformation, and elimination. Concepts of linear and non-linear compartment models and in pharmacodynamics, the mechanism of drug action, receptors, structural and functional families of receptors, and quantitation of drug-receptor interaction have been briefly discussed briefly. Neurotransmission is introduced in Unit II. We explore the general concept of neurotransmission in this unit. Neurohumoral transmission in the autonomic and central nervous systems has been discussed here. Further, we discussed the concept of NANC. In Unit III, we address systemic pharmacology, in which we go through the pathophysiology of diseases, mechanisms of action, pharmacology, and toxicology of existing as well as novel drugs. It has been looked into how parasympathomimetics and sympathomimetics affect the neuromuscular junction and how they affect the autonomic nervous system.
