This textbook is the first to present a systematic introduction to chemical analysis of pharmaceutical raw materials, finished pharmaceutical products, and of drugs in biological fluids, which are carried out in pharmaceutical laboratories worldwide. In addition, this textbook teaches the fundamentals of all the major analytical techniques used in the pharmaceutical laboratory, and teaches the international pharmacopoeias and guidelines of importance for the field. It is primarily intended for the pharmacy student, to teach the requirements in “analytical chemistry” for the 5 years pharmacy curriculum, but the textbook is also intended for analytical chemists moving into the field of pharmaceutical analysis. Addresses the basic concepts, then establishes the foundations for the common analytical methods that are currently used in the quantitative and qualitative chemical analysis of pharmaceutical drugs Provides an understanding of common analytical techniques used in all areas of pharmaceutical development Suitable for a foundation course in chemical and pharmaceutical sciences Aimed at undergraduate students of degrees in Pharmaceutical Science/Chemistry Analytical Science/Chemistry, Forensic analysis Includes many illustrative examples

For many people, taking some form of medication is part of everyday life, whether for mild or severe illness, acute or chronic disease, to target infection or to relieve pain. However for most it remains a mystery as to what happens once the drug has been taken into the body: how do the drugs actually work? Furthermore, by what processes are new drugs discovered and brought to market? An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry, sixth edition, provides an accessible and comprehensive account of this fascinating multidisciplinary field. Assuming little prior knowledge, the text is ideal for those studying the subject for the first time. Part one of the book introduces the principles of drug action via targets such as receptors and enzymes. The book goes on to explore how drugs work at the molecular level (pharmacodynamics), and the processes involved in ensuring a drug meets its target (pharmacokinetics). Further sections cover the processes by which drugs are discovered and designed, and what has to happen before a drug can be made available to the public. The book concludes with a selection of current topics in medicinal chemistry, and a discussion of various key drug groups. The subject is brought to life throughout by engaging case studies highlighting particular drugs and the stories behind their discovery and development. The Online Resource Centre features: For students: DT Multiple Choice Questions to support self-directed learning DT Web articles describing recent developments in the field and further information on topics covered in the book DT Journal Club to encourage students to critically analyse the research literature DT Molecular Modelling Exercises, with new exercises in Chem3D DT New assignments to help students develop data analysis and problem solving skills For registered adopters of the book: DT A test bank of additional multiple-choice questions, with links to relevant sections in the book DT Answers to end-of-chapter questions. DT Figures from the book, ready to download. DT Power Point slides to accompany every chapter in the book.

The textbook of Pharmaceutical Chemistry has been written for students of diploma in pharmacy first-year students keeping in mind specific requirements of the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI), Education Regulation - 2020. This is a bilingual book in both English and Hindi for easy understanding to students. This book is covering the entire syllabus as per new PCI norms including practicals and previous year questions. This book containing thirteen chapters covering pharmaceutical inorganic chemistry and medicinal chemistry topics. Chapter 1 is introduction to pharmaceutical chemistry containing limit tests, error in analysis, scope, significant figures and quality control methods. Chapter 2 is volumetric analysis containing fundamentals, acid and base theories and titrations. Chapter 3 is related to inorganic pharmaceuticals comprise of hematinics and antacids. Chapter 4 belongs to heterocyclic compounds and their nomenclature. Chapter 5-13 belongs to synthesis and classification of medicinal drugs and their chemistry used in the treatment of several disorder.

Pharmaceutical Chemistry provides a wide-ranging overview of organic chemistry as applied to the study and practice of pharmacy. Drugs are simply chemicals, so to fully understand their manufacture, formulation, and the way they work in our bodies, a knowledge of organic compounds and their reactions is essential.

Thakur publication Pvt. Ltd. Presenting "Pharmaceutical Chemistry" in English Edition book for d.pharm- 1st year as per PCI. The Pharmaceutical Chemistry book by Thakur Publication Pvt. Ltd. is a comprehensive guide for first-year students pursuing Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharm) as per the guidelines laid down by the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI). The book covers a wide range of topics related to the chemical and physical properties of drugs, drug interactions, and the synthesis and analysis of pharmaceutical compounds. It also includes detailed information on the principles of medicinal chemistry, drug design, and drug metabolism. With clear and concise explanations and numerous illustrations, this book is an essential resource for students to gain a thorough understanding of pharmaceutical chemistry and its applications in the pharmaceutical industry. This dual-color book evokes a sense of satisfaction and fosters a profound grasp of its content among students.

A slow and consistent study of the approaches for drug design can help the foundation for a good scientific intuition. This edition includes over 30 new illustrations, numerous new mechanistic schemes and enhanced original figures. In addition, the use of color makes its study more pleasant and impressive. The Second Edition has been thoroughly revised with a modern look. The chapters on QSAR and Drug Metabolism have been extended, emphasizing concepts, such as the hyperconjugative effect or the anomeric effect, in which the student normally finds it difficult to understand. Stereoelectronic effects are essential to explain the mechanism of action of drugs and therefore, its agile and intuitive handling will allow the student access to both chemical and biological mechanisms, in a more rational way. The text is illustrated with hundreds of formulas and many tables that facilitate the understanding of this interesting discipline, which is halfway between Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry and Pharmacology. This Volume is aimed at building basis principles on drug design and it is likely to be of interest to students reading, pharmacy, pharmacology, and pharmaceutical chemistry. This book emphasizes general principles of drug design and drug action from an organic chemical perspective, rather than from the overview of specific classes of drugs, allowing the reader to extrapolate information to many related classes of drug molecules. This volume presents an organic chemistry’s perspective of how drug are designed and assuming no prior knowledge of biochemistry, and pharmacology. It is written in an informal, clear style so that undergraduates can easily understand the concepts presented.
