In the next chapter of Unit 1, the concepts of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are presented. In pharmacokinetics, we investigate the drug's absorption, distribution, biotransformation, and elimination. Concepts of linear and non-linear compartment models and in pharmacodynamics, the mechanism of drug action, receptors, structural and functional families of receptors, and quantitation of drug-receptor interaction have been briefly discussed briefly. Neurotransmission is introduced in Unit II. We explore the general concept of neurotransmission in this unit. Neurohumoral transmission in the autonomic and central nervous systems has been discussed here. Further, we discussed the concept of NANC. In Unit III, we address systemic pharmacology, in which we go through the pathophysiology of diseases, mechanisms of action, pharmacology, and toxicology of existing as well as novel drugs. It has been looked into how parasympathomimetics and sympathomimetics affect the neuromuscular junction and how they affect the autonomic nervous system.
