Difference between Efficacy and Pharmacodynamics

Efficacy vs. Pharmacodynamics

Efficacy is the ability to get a job done satisfactorily. Pharmacodynamics is the study of the biochemical and physiologic effects of drugs (especially pharmaceutical drugs).

Similarities between Efficacy and Pharmacodynamics

Efficacy and Pharmacodynamics have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Intrinsic activity, Ligand (biochemistry), Medication, Receptor (biochemistry).

Intrinsic activity

Intrinsic activity (IA) or efficacy refers to the relative ability of a drug-receptor complex to produce a maximum functional response.
