  Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamics is the study of the biochemical and physiological effects of drugs and the mechanisms of drug action and the relationship between drug concentration and effect.
It is often summarily stated that pharmacodynamics is the study of what a drug does to the body, whereas pharmacokinetics is the study of what the body does to a drug.
MCPD is the study of the static and dynamic properties and relationships between a set of drugs and a dynamic and diverse multicellular 4 dimensional organization.

 Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamics, the study of the time course and intensity of drug effects on the organism, also has undergone major advances, largely due to technological advances in our capacity to measure drug effects.
Advances in the clinical applications of pharmacodynamics are due to improved precision and objectivity in methods for measuring human drug response, and the emergence of the discipline of kinetic–dynamic modeling, in which drug concentration is used as a direct predictor of response.
Pharmacodynamic studies of sedative–anxiolytic drugs serve to illustrate available approaches to quantitation, and the limitations associated with each (24, 31).
