This research area (Pharmaceutical Science) is broadly classified into the following main categories- and each category contains many specialized fields: Drug Discovery and Design; Drug Delivery; Drug Action; Clinical Sciences; Drug Analysis; Cost Effectiveness of Medicines (Pharmacoeconomics); and Regulatory Affairs.
