Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics

“Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics” is a Section of the peer-reviewed open access journal Pharmaceutics, which is devoted to highlighting the importance of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in drug development for better understanding of drug action. The Section welcomes original research articles as well as review papers that address a variety of related topics to novel and significant scientific findings by in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies. The manuscript mainly focused on descriptive pharmacokinetics lacking novelty and scientific significance will not be considered for review.

Covered topics include:

• Mechanisms and factors affecting drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion;
• Kinetics of drug disposition and therapeutic effects;
• Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacometrics;
• Toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics;
• Mathematical model for the assessment of drug ADME;
• Model-based drug development;
• Translational mathematical modeling in drug development;
• Quantitative systems pharmacology.
