Rate this book
For over half a century, this book has served the discipline of medicinal chemistry for both graduate and undergraduate pharmacy and chemistry students as well as practicing pharmacists. Fully updated for the Twelfth Edition, coverage begins with the fundamental principles of chemistry, biochemistry, and biology that underlie the discipline of medicinal chemistry. These principles are then applied to understanding the properties, mode of action, therapeutic applications, and limitations of various pharmaceutical agents. The subject matter is organized by pharmaceutical and therapeutic classes, providing a bridge between the basic sciences and clinical practice. The text contains many tables for quick reference to names, formulations, dosages, and applications. This edition includes chapter review questions. A companion website provides answers to the review questions for students and an image bank for faculty.

Enim dignissimos ut incidunt dolores. Voluptatibus qui itaque quas. In expedita sit et dolores modi. Aliquid ea voluptas sint natus.
