Chemical Classification: Categorization of drugs based on their molecular structure or chemical composition. Example: Beta-lactams (penicillins, cephalosporins).
Therapeutic Classification: Grouping drugs according to their primary medical use or effect in treating specific conditions. Example: Antihypertensives, analgesics.
Mechanism of Action Classification: Classification based on how drugs produce their effects at the cellular or molecular level. Example: Receptor agonists, enzyme inhibitors, ion channel blockers.
Bioavailability: The proportion of a drug that enters systemic circulation intact after administration, affecting its efficacy.
Receptor: A protein molecule on or within cells that binds specific drugs (ligands) to produce a biological response.
Pharmacological Target: The specific molecule or receptor that a drug interacts with to exert its effect.
