Pharmacokinetics refer to how the drug works through its mechanisms and how the drug interacts with the body. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and elimination of the drug from the body are all part of the pharmacokinetic phase of a drug trial. Pharmacists and industrial scientists are the foremost experts in this field. In a hospital or health clinic, pharmacists are involved in dosing drugs based on its pharmacokinetic profile in a patient - such as in babies and pediatric patients.

What benefits does pharmacodynamics offer?
Drug and drug receptor interactions can be measured. Complex pharmacodynamic equations combine with measurable pharmacokinetic values to determine the overall effect of a drug

What is theDifference between pharmakodynamics and pharmacokinetics?
Pharmacokinetic is the study about the effects of body on the drug i.e how drug absorbed, metabolized, distributed and excreted. while pharmacodynamic deals with the effect of drug on the body

What is difference between pharmacological action and pharmacological effect?
Pharmacological action is the therapeutic action of the drug on the body. For example, how the drug acts on the cells, what the drug does to the cells. Whereas the alteration or changes produced after the drug has acted (the action being; how the drug acted and what action did the drug do) on the cells is pharmacologial effect. Simply, in layman's terms pharmacological action is what action the drug can do and the pharmacological effect is what the action of the drug has done.
What are the three phases of drug effects?
There are three phases of drug effects. These three phases are the administration phase, active phase, and the metabolism phase.
