Psychopharmacology Scholarly Peer-review Journal

Psychopharmacology is that the scientific study of the consequences drugs wear mood, sensation, thinking, and behavior. It is distinguished from neuropsychopharmacology, which emphasizes the correlation between drug-induced changes within the functioning of cells within the systema nervosum and changes in consciousness and behavior. The psychopharmacology area studies a broad variety of drugs with specific types of psychoactive effects, mainly concentrating on the chemical interactions with the brain. The term "psychopharmacology" was possibly first coined in 1920 by David Macht. To induce widespread changes in physiological or psychological functions, psychoactive drugs interact with specific target sites or receptors found in the nervous system. The specific interaction between drugs and their receptors is mentioned as drug action, and therefore the widespread changes in physiological or psychological function are mentioned as drug effect.
