    <abstract language="eng">Pharmacology and pharmacotherapeutics assume increased significance in the treatment and management of human diseases. Also, it is evident from the current experiences of the novel Coronavirus pandemic, that specific therapeutic pharmacological agents are essential to successfully treat and manage patients. Having good knowledge of the pathogenesis of various diseases helps us in the direction towards the development of newer and improved pharmacotherapeutic agents. Also essential is to understand the anatomy, physiology, and functions of various organs of the human body like the eye, skin, kidneys, among others. Improved knowledge of the human immune responses to infections, inflammation, poisoning, drug reactions, and the agonistic and antagonistic activities of potential endogenous pharmacological molecules is necessary to discover newer pharmacological agents, improve health, and fight diseases.</abstract>
