    To put it in basic terms...

    PharmacoKINETICS is the observation of what the body does to the drug. (think of motion...where does the drug MOVE to)

    Whereas PharmacoDYNAMICS is the observation of what the drug does to the body. (think of change...what happens to the body as a result of taking the drug)

    Source(s): My pharmacology profs beat us over and over with this information...lol. It helped!
