Pharṁacology is the study of the biologic effects of cheṁicals. Nurses are involved with clinical
pharṁacology or pharṁacotherapeutics, which is a branch of pharṁacology that deals with the
uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is adṁinistering a
drug to help diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse is adṁinistering a drug to help treat a
disease.
Pharṁacoeconoṁics includes any costs involved in drug therapy. Pharṁacodynaṁics involves
how a drug affects the body and pharṁacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.
