Pharmaceutics focuses on the formulation and design of the drugs for the masses also teaching students how to create effective medicines in different forms. 

But, Pharmacology, on the other hand, is the study and not the process. It is a study of how the drugs affect and work with the human body.

Pharmacognosy is the study of medicinal drugs obtained from natural sources such as plants, animals, and minerals, focusing on their identification, extraction, and quality evaluation.

Pharmacology, in contrast, examines how drugs act on the body and their therapeutic applications. 

Pharmacovigilance primarily involves monitoring drug safety, adverse effects, and side effects. While they complement one another, each discipline serves a distinct role in pharmacy education and practice.
