B Pharm Medicinal Chemistry 2 pdf Notes
Updated: Feb 15
Yo, fellow B.Pharm backbenchers! Remember the good ol' days of Organic Chemistry, where the only thing longer than the carbon chains were your sighs of despair? Well, buckle up, because Medicinal Chemistry 2 is here to take the complexity crown (and your sanity) with a vengeance. But hey, at least with these B Pharm Medicinal Chemistry 2 pdf Notes, you won't have to suffer through lectures that sound like a robot trying to rap about photosynthesis. Consider this your cheat sheet to surviving the drug-induced madness of this semester, a secret decoder ring for the hieroglyphics of mechanisms, and a lifeline for your GPA. Just don't blame me if you start seeing ibuprofen bailando in your sleep – that's just the side effects of knowledge, baby.
(P.S. Don't ask me where I got these notes. Let's just say my sources are as shady as a molecule with five nitrile groups.)
Scope:
This subject is designed to impart fundamental knowledge on the structure, chemistry and therapeutic value of drugs. The subject emphasizes on structure activity relationships of drugs, importance of physicochemical properties and metabolism of drugs. The syllabus also emphasizes on chemical synthesis of important drugs under each class
Objectives: Upon completion of the subject student shall be able to:
Understand the chemistry of drugs with respect to their pharmacological activity
Understand the drug metabolic pathways, adverse effect and therapeutic value of drugs
Know the Structural Activity Relationship of different class of drugs
Study the chemical synthesis of selected drugs
