Preferred Label : drug design;
IUPAC definition : drug design includes not only ligand design, but also pharmacokinetic and toxicity,
which are mostly beyond the possibilities of structure- and/or computer-aided design.
Nevertheless, appropriate chemometric tools, including experimental design and multivariate
statistics, can be of value in the planning and evaluation of pharmacokinetic and
toxicological experiments and results. drug design is most often used instead of the
correct term 'Ligand Design'.;
