The concept of drugs is central to the field of medicine and healthcare. In a medical context, drugs are substances used to diagnose, prevent, treat, or manage various medical conditions and diseases. They can have therapeutic effects, alleviate symptoms, or modify the course of a disease. Drugs can come in various forms, such as tablets, capsules, injections, creams, ointments, or liquids, and they can be administered through different routes, including oral, topical, intravenous, intramuscular, or inhalation.
