Abstract
The science dealing with the phenomenon of rhythmicity in living organisms is called chronobiology. The branch dealing with the pharmacologic aspects of chronobiology is termed chronopharmacology, which may be subdivided into chronotherapy, chronopharmacokinetics and chronotoxicity. After a short discussion of the terminology used in chronobiology, a survey of drugs studied with respect to chronopharmacology, particularly of chronopharmacokinetics in man, is given.Entities:
