Departments

Department of Pharmacognosy

This is the study of medicines derived from natural sources i.e plant, animals, marine and other life origins. The institute has developed a medicinal plant garden within the campus. Research areas include extraction, isolation, and characterization phytoconstituents from natural products.

 The department also deals with development and standardization of novel herbal formulations. The department also organizes seminars and workshops on current topics at regular intervals.

Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry

This is a study of drugs, and it involves drug development. This department is an interdisciplinary department incorporating medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, pharmaceutical analysis, pharmaceutical organic chemistry and pharmaceutical inorganic chemistry. This includes drug discovery, delivery, absorption, metabolism, and more. There are elements of biomedical analysis, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. The research focus in Pharmaceutical Chemistry research includes synthetic chemistry, phytochemistry, pharmacological screening of herbal extracts, isolation of active compounds, structural elucidation.

Department of Pharmaceutics

The Department of Pharmaceutics conducts research and teaching in precision medicine that is targeted towards improving patient therapy by maximizing drug efficacy while minimizing drug toxicity. The Pharmaceutics is about understanding the process in order to achieve the above goal that includes drug delivery and determines the exposure and pharmacological response to drugs. The areas of focus include genetic, environmental, physiological and disease processes that can alter metabolism, transport, distribution and absorption of drugs.

Department of Pharmacy Practice

The Division of Pharmacy Practice is comprised of faculty who provide education in the administrative and behavioral sciences, clinical services, as well as direct practice experience. The department studies on enhancing communication skills, an ethical pharmacy practice and well practice of pharmacy law. The professional integrated approach to drug therapy management.

The program emphasizes an integrated and problem-based approach to disease management as Clinical pharmacy services like Ward round participation, Prescription monitoring, Providing drug information through a drug information center, Adverse drug reaction monitoring, and patient counseling are practiced.

Pharmacokinetics studies the bodies’ impact on the drugs. It is often described as what the body does to a drug, refers to the movement of drug into, through, and out of the body—the time course of its absorption, bioavailability, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.

Pharmacotherapeutics is a branch of Pharmacology, which is defined by Merriam-Webster as “the study of the therapeutic uses and effects of drugs” this is a study of beneficial and adverse effects of drugs.

Pharmacotherapeutics is the clinical purpose or indication for giving a drug. Pharmacokinetics is the effect of the body on the drug. It is made up of four phases: absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.

  • Absorption is the movement of the drug from the site of administration into the bloodstream.

  • Distribution is movement of the drug through the bloodstream and eventually into the cells.

  • Metabolism refers to the changing of the drug into another substance or substances (i.e., metabolites).

  • Excretion is the removal of the drug or its metabolites from the body.

The science of Toxicology is defined as the study of the adverse effects of chemical, physical, or biological agents on people, animals, and the environment.  The study includes biologic toxins, study of poison & its effects deals with deleterious effects of physical & chemical agents (including drugs) in human.

Toxicologists are scientists trained to investigate, interpret, and communicate the nature of those effects.   Most toxicologists focus on chemical agents, although some are experts about harmful effects of physical agents such as radiation.  Toxicology is an interdisciplinary science, integrating information from biology and virtually all of its subspecialties (e.g., genetics, endocrinology and molecular biology) as well as math, physics and chemistry and its subspecialties (e.g. analytical, organic, and clinical chemistry).
