Pharmacognosy and Pharmacology both study medicine, but they do different things. Pharmacognosy look at natural stuff and what help people, but Pharmacology study all medicine, even man-made, and how they work in body.

They are different part of pharmacy. Pharmacognosy is only about nature medicine, Pharmacology is about all medicine and what happen in body.

Pharmacognosy is study medicine from nature, how to find them and also what they do. You learn it more in BPharm or pharmacy courses, not much in MBBS.

But in MBBS some small part of Pharmacology may teach about herbal medicine or natural products.
