New medications are developed through chemistry. Scientists know what existing drugs do, and they change the chemicals around a little to see if they can make the medicine better or if they can make a new medication that does something similar to the original.
Some drugs are just by accident, though - scientists notice that people respond a certain way to some medication and then use chemistry to try to figure out what's going on and whether they can improve that medication. This is how they discovered that a common blood pressure medication can help people to regrow hair, for example.
