Difference between PK/PD models and Pharmacology

PK/PD models vs. Pharmacology

PK/PD modeling (pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling) (alternatively abbreviated as PKPD or PK-PD modeling) is a technique that combines the two classical pharmacologic disciplines of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Pharmacology is the branch of biology concerned with the study of drug action, where a drug can be broadly defined as any man-made, natural, or endogenous (from within body) molecule which exerts a biochemical or physiological effect on the cell, tissue, organ, or organism (sometimes the word pharmacon is used as a term to encompass these endogenous and exogenous bioactive species).

Similarities between PK/PD models and Pharmacology

PK/PD models and Pharmacology have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Drug, Food and Drug Administration, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics.

Drug

A drug is any substance (other than food that provides nutritional support) that, when inhaled, injected, smoked, consumed, absorbed via a patch on the skin, or dissolved under the tongue causes a temporary physiological (and often psychological) change in the body.

Pharmacokinetics

Pharmacokinetics (from Ancient Greek pharmakon "drug" and kinetikos "moving, putting in motion"; see chemical kinetics), sometimes abbreviated as PK, is a branch of pharmacology dedicated to determining the fate of substances administered to a living organism.

PK/PD models and Pharmacology Comparison

PK/PD models has 12 relations, while Pharmacology has 131. As they have in common 4, the Jaccard index is 2.80% = 4 / (12 + 131).
