Pharmacology, the scientific study of the interaction between drugs and biological systems (a drug being any compound which when taken or applied elicits a physiological change including a toxic change or improvement in a pathological condition), is derived from the Greek word pharmakon, a drug, medicine, pharmaceutical or poison. Related words from the same root are pharmaceutical, pharmacist, pharmacy, pharmacognosy and pharmacopoeia. Note that the similar Greek word pharmakos has a very different meaning: a scapegoat, or a person chosen to reduce one's culpability for a crime or responsibility for misfortune.
