Clinical Pharmacology is the science of drugs in humans and their optimal clinical use in patients. It is underpinned by the basic science of pharmacology, with an added focus on the application of pharmacological principles and quantitative methods in the real human patient population. Clinical pharmacologists are doctors with training in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics (CPT), which is the science of medicines and their clinical use.
