چکیده

Chronopharmacology is an area where the drug administration (dosing regimen) synchronized with biological rhythms so as to maximize therapeutic effect. It involves both the investigation of drug effects as a function of biologic timing and the investigation of drug effects upon rhythm characteristics. The major objective of this article is to inform biologists, clinicians, pharmaceutical scientists and other professional about the importance of biological clocks & Chronopharmacology to human health and disease also motivate the investigator to develop new tools for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as cardiac arrhythmia, myocardial infarction etc. this article also provide a new ideas to use of older or already well-established active pharmaceutical ingredients for the treatment of various diseases.
