What Does PD Stand For?
PD stands for Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamics (PD) is the branch of pharmacology that studies the biological effects of drugs on the body and their mechanisms of action. It encompasses the relationship between drug concentration and therapeutic response, exploring how drugs interact with receptors, enzymes, and other cellular targets to influence physiological functions. Understanding pharmacodynamics is essential for optimizing drug therapy, predicting therapeutic outcomes, and minimizing adverse effects.
