Clinical Pharmacokinetics

Aims & Scope

Clinical Pharmacokinetics promotes the continuing development of clinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for the improvement of drug therapy, and for furthering postgraduate education in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics.

Pharmacokinetics, the study of drug disposition in the body, is an integral part of drug development and rational use.

Knowledge and application of pharmacokinetic principles leads to accelerated drug development, cost effective drug use and a reduced frequency of adverse effects and drug interactions.
