THE USE OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS AS MEDICINAL SUBSTANCES
Keywords:
Keywords: Organic compounds, medicinal chemistry, drug design, pharmacodynamics, pharmaceutical synthesis, bioactive moleculesAbstract
Annotation: Organic compounds play a fundamental role in modern medicine
due to their structural diversity and ability to interact specifically with biological
targets. This article explores the significance of organic molecules in drug design and
development, highlighting their chemical properties, mechanisms of action, and recent
advances in pharmaceutical applications. Emphasis is placed on the synthesis of novel
compounds, their pharmacodynamics, and the integration of organic chemistry with
biotechnology for improved therapeutic outcomes.
