[The origins of the Brno School of Pharmacy and the development of pharmaceutical chemistry as an important discipline].
After the foundation of the course of pharmaceutical studies at Masaryk University in Brno in 1945, its Institute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry has been founded. In pharmaceutical chemistry, which was divided into the theoretical, synthetic and control-analytical parts, a system of classification was worked out based on classification of drugs according to the kind of effect for which it serves. This conception was incorporated into three editions of the book Chemická léciva (Chemical Drugs). The research programme of the Institute solved the development of novel local anaesthetic and antituberculous agents. After the disestablishment of the Faculty of Pharmacy in Brno, the development of pharmaceutical chemistry, continued at the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Comenius University, Bratislava, and beginning with 1969 at Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové.
