The Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology is an official journal of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society, and one of the leading pharmaceutical sciences journals. It publishes original research papers and critical reviews at the interface of disciplines within the pharmaceutical and related to this field. Pharmacology is a branch of medicine and pharmaceutical sciences which is concerned with the study of drug or medication action, where a drug can be broadly or narrowly defined as any man-made, natural, or endogenous (from within the body) molecule which exerts a biochemical or physiological effect on the cell, tissue, organ, or organism (sometimes the word pharmacon is used as a term to encompass these endogenous and exogenous bioactive species).
