Abstract
In the teaching of veterinary pharmacology and toxicology it is important that the courses be placed at stages in the curriculum when the students have acquired adequate background in allied disciplines and are enthusiastic about the material presented. The expertise of the faculty and the involvement of its members in basic aspects of clinical veterinary research can greatly influence the attitude of students towards the discipline. Postgraduate training in pharmacology and toxicology is best provided through organized graduate programmes which have a critical mass of faculty specialists in the discipline.
