Drug Design and Development

The process of bringing a new pharmaceutical drug once a lead compound has been identified through the process of drug discovery and improving methods in drug discovery is called Drug Design and Development. Rational drug design develops fewer compounds compared to high-throughput screening. However, these compounds are very specific to the target and use computer-based modelling to achieve this specificity.
