This short text deals with the fundamentals of the two twin disciplines of biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics which have been developed with the objective of learning how drugs can be employed optimally in the treatment of disease through the understanding of the various procedures and advances in drug design, product development, therapeutic drug monitoring, etc. The major aim of compiling this text is to present the information in a lucid style to cater specifically the needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students of pharmacy, medicine. Wherever necessary, mathematical equations have been developed using simple integration and differentiation methods to enable the students to understand the concepts easily. Every effort has been exercised to present the concepts in a simple way. A concise description of the biovailabilty of a drug from its formulation has been included at a separate place in the text. Practice questions have been included at the end of chapter to help the students to understand the subject thoroughly. Contents : 1. Introduction 2. Drug Absorption 3. Distribution of Drugs 4.

The text "Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Inorganic, Vol I" has been revised according to the revised syllabus framed by the Pharmacy council of India. In this book, subject matter has been reorganised incorporating applicationwise classification (Therapeutic, pharmaceutical etc) rather than the traditional chemical classification. More emphasis has been further laid by explaining the medical and pharmaceutical terms and to what extent it is justifiable to classify a compound under any of the categories. Inevitably, students will find repetition for some compounds which find more than one application. There are many important official and non-official inorganic pharmaceuticals (e.g., lithium carbonate, cis-platin, water, etc., on whom the latest edition of India Pharmacopoeia does not spell out. However, these have been described in this book to the same extent as others. Every inorganic compound included in this book has been discussed under definition, preparation, properties, identification, tests for purity, assay method, storage condition and uses. Further, this book includes general treatment of topics such as impurities in pharmaceutical substances and their limit tests, principles and techniques of volumetric and gravimetric analysis, radioisotopes in pharmacy, pharmaceutical aids and necessities. Contents : 1. Introduction to Pharmaceutical Chemistry 2. Errors in Analysis 3. Quality Control in Pharmacy 4. Impurities in Pharmaceutical Substances and their Limit Tests 5.

We are feeling privileged to present this MCQ books series to every aspirant of the Pharmacy fraternity. Harmonization of the syllabus and examination pattern by the Pharmacy Council of India followed by a pandemic situation has made us realize the importance of objective and MCQ style questions. Majority of the Pharmacy aptitude tests like GPAT and NIPER JEE, Pharmacy exit examinations, Government/non-government recruitment examinations and other competitive examinations are being conducted through MCQ-based pattern. It has created a huge thrust for MCQ-based books that not only cover the latest PCI syllabus with topic/unit-wise MCQ type questions but also provide insights into the relevant matter through relevant description. We hope this thrust will be significantly extinguished by these series of books. We are sure that the readers of the first edition will enjoy reading this book as much as we have enjoyed preparing it. We hope that the students of Pharmacy will receive this book favoring as an effective competitive examination book and we sincerely hope that the book will go a long way to satisfy the long-felt need of students for a friendly book in competitive exams.

Amongst the subjects studied during either diploma or degree pharmacy course, the Pharmaceutical Chemistry or Medicinal Chemistry stands different; this is because it deals with the actual drug (medicine) molecules which are invented, undergo clinical trials, manufactured, formulated, get approval from regulatory authorities, prescribed and used by the end consumer, that is patient, for either preventive or cure of the disorder or disease. These drug molecules act upon the receptors, pathogens at a molecular level and exhibit required pharmacodynamic action. Pharmacy Council of India released the new education regulations in 2020 for the "Diploma in Pharmacy" course wherein the new syllabus of the "Pharmaceutical Chemistry" has been designed to make aware the student about chemistry and uses of drug substance, its storage conditions along with knowledge of the impurities, and way of testing them. This book covers whole syllabus, and is written in a very simple and easy to understand language for the students. This book has been divided in sections such as chapters on general topics, analysis, and nomenclature of organic systems, inorganic and organic pharmaceuticals.
