    Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are involved with clinical
    pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of
    drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help
    diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat a disease. Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy. Pharmacodynamics involves how a
    drug affects the body and pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
