This book provides a foundational understanding of the chemical principles behind drug action, formulation, and analysis. The subject is typically divided into two parts: Pharmaceutical Chemistry I, which focuses on inorganic chemistry, and Pharmaceutical Chemistry II, which deals with organic and medicinal chemistry. In Part I, students learn about inorganic pharmaceutical compounds such as acids, bases, buffers, electrolytes, and metal-based drugs, including their preparation, properties, uses, and purity standards as per official pharmacopoeias. Part II introduces chemistry of organic medicinal compounds, covering the classification, nomenclature, synthesis, and mechanisms of action of various drug classes like analgesics, antibiotics, sulfonamides, and antiseptics. Students may explore structure-activity relationship (SAR) and important chemical reactions involved in drug design and modification. Overall, this book equips the students with the necessary knowledge to understand the chemical nature of drugs, their therapeutic roles, and quality control measures essential in pharmaceutical practice.
