This Topic presents a collection of contemporary research and critical reviews that capture the latest developments in veterinary pharmacology and toxicology. The field has moved well beyond traditional pharmacokinetic profiling and acute toxicity testing and is now embracing systems pharmacology, computational toxicology, and evidence-based approaches to optimize drug use in food-producing and companion animals. A central theme emerging from the contributions is the challenge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the search for pharmacological alternatives. Several articles explore the use of plant-derived compounds, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and essential oils, as standalone or adjunctive therapies against bacterial, protozoal, and fungal infections. These natural products often operate through multi-target mechanisms, including the disruption of bacterial cell membranes, inhibition of efflux pumps, and modulation of host inflammatory responses. Notably, combination strategies, such as pairing a phytochemical with a low dose of a conventional antibiotic, have demonstrated synergistic effects that restore susceptibility in resistant pathogens.
