Medicinal chemistry is one of the most important and relevant subjects for pharmacy students to master; a subject that delves deep into the complex interactions that underpin how and why drugs and drug classes work in the way that they do and how this impacts drug formulation.
Medicinal chemistry does not need to be difficult.

Understanding the principles of medicinal chemistry is a
cornerstone of how to effectively learn about drugs,
medicines, and how they work at the molecular level.
Not only this, but a solid understanding of pharmaceutical chemistry is
also required to understand the molecular specifics of why drugs are
designed in the way that they are, and how this impacts ‘mechanisms of
action’ and drug formulation science.
