Summary

Using case studies of successful drug discoveries and launches, this book helps master the necessary knowledge of the drug discovery process. It includes pharmacology, drug metabolism, biology, drug development, and clinical studies. The introduction provides an overview of process, principles, and technologies and each chapter contains case studies that focus on one therapeutic target. It also offers stories from patients who have used the drugs covered as a way to illustrate the impact medicinal chemistry has on real life.
