A pharmaceutical drug (also referred to as a pharmaceutical, pharmaceutical preparation, pharmaceutical product, medicinal product, medicine, medication, medicament, or simply a drug) is a drug used to diagnose, cure, treat, or prevent disease. Drug therapy (pharmacotherapy) is an important part of the medical field and relies on the science of pharmacology for continual advancement and on pharmacy for appropriate management.
Drugs are classified in various ways. One of the key divisions is by level of control, which distinguishes prescription drugs (those that a pharmacist dispenses only on the order of a physician, physician assistant, or qualified nurse) from over-the-counter drugs (those that consumers can order for themselves). Another key distinction is between traditional small molecule drugs, usually derived from chemical synthesis, and biopharmaceuticals, which include recombinant proteins, vaccines, blood products used therapeutically (such as IVIG), gene therapy, and cell therapy (for instance, stem cell therapies). Other ways to classify medicines are by mode of action, route of administration, biological system affected, or therapeutic effects. An elaborate and widely used classification system is the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC system). The World Health Organization keeps a list of essential medicines.

Shares of Ariad Pharmaceuticals (ARIA) plunged as much as 15 percent after Sen.Bernie Sanders criticized the price of the company's leukemia drug on Twitter. The stock ended the day down about 14.8 percent at $11.14 a share. Ariad did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment. The key biotech ETF (IBB) has fallen 21 percent in 2016, as the sector faces renewed criticism on the campaign trail. Last month, Hillary Clinton proposed a consumer response team that would monitor drug prices and impose penalties for unjustified price increases. "Over the past year, we've seen far too many examples of drug companies raising prices excessively for long-standing, life-saving treatments with little or no new innovation or R&D;," Clinton said in a statement. Even with Friday's decline, ARIAD...

Analysts are weighing in on cybersecurity stock Fortinet Inc (NASDAQ:FTNT), drugmaker Valeant Pharmaceuticals Intl Inc (NYSE:VRX), and semiconductor specialist Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ:XLNX). Here's a quick roundup of today's bearish brokerage notes on FTNT, VRX, and XLNX. Last night, FTNT cut its third-quarter earnings and revenue guidance, citing "the lengthening of deal cycles as enterprises are becoming more strategic with their purchasing decisions and buying with less urgency than last year." Wall Street has panned the development, as evidenced by a raft of negative analyst notes. Of particular note, Goldman Sachs removed Fortinet Inc from its "Conviction" list and slashed its price target to $36 from $43, while Stephens downgraded its rating to "equal weight." Out of the gate, the stoc...

Quality by Design (QbD) is a hot topic in the pharmaceutical industry, heavily promoted by the FDA. However, these tools should be used by every industry interested in producing high-quality products. The general concepts are not new, but the tools to implement them have dramatically improved in the last few years. This presentation provides a briefing on QbD along with state-of-the-art response surface methods (RSMs) for developing a robust design space.
War On Health -- Full Documentary This film delivers irrefutable evidence as to how pharmaceutical companies slaughter tens of thousands of Americans each year with impunity with deadly FDA-approved drugs. See for yourself why clinical medical practice is advancing at a snail's pace, while the federal government goes to extraordinary lengths to stamp out those who seek natural and more innovative approaches to disease prevention and treatment. The war against our health has penetrated government, academia, and the media to such a degree that no sound-bite explanation will expose the magnitude of the problem we face. But this film does! So do yourself a huge favor. View War on Health* here and now... because you need to know. Then Share it with your friends ... because they do, too! --...
This is a Documentary and will provide the facts about psychotropic drugs and the huge profits they create for the pharmaceutical industry. These drugs are not safe and have not been on the market long enough to provide sufficient long term studies regarding their effects. These drugs do cause addiction, however most "doctors" would call this dependence because you do not have to take an increasing dose over time. They are completely fine with you being addicted to the same amount of any given drug on a daily basis. Over half of the people that commit suicide in the United States are prescribed to psychotropic drugs. (Ex: Paxil (Paroxetine), Zoloft (Sertraline), Prozac, Wellbutrin (Bupropion), Effexor, Seroquil, Ultram (Tramadol), etc.) Save Money, Get Healthy And Create Wealth With Young...
