Pharmacodynamics - Part 2: Dose-response Relationship

For a drug to generate an evident physiological response, its concentration at the site of action needs to be sufficiently high. However, since direct measurements aren't possible in many tissues, drug concentrations are monitored in plasma.

Outline:
00:00 - Dose-response relationship
03:39 - Agonists and antagonists
