Atoms/ions can be linked together to provide desired effects as medicines. An example is how penicillin (a complex molecule) serves us by acting as an antibiotic. Chemistry is the science in which we learn how things work on an atomic level. Through chemistry we can learn if a medicine could potentially do more harm than good.

Analytical chemistry is utilized in hospitals to detect diseases from blood, CSF or urine samples. We can tell if a patient has been drinking methanol for example, which is extremely hazardous. We can monitor the intake of potentially dangerous medications as to prevent an overdose.

If you are interested in the subject I suggest you look into analytical techniques for health sciences and also potentially dangerous elements and molecules that are scanned for.
