Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are s s s s s s s s s s s


involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a
s s s s s s s s s


branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent,
s s s s s s s s s s s s s


and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help
s s s s s s s s s s s s


diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat a
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s


disease. Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.

Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body and s s s s s s s s


pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.
