Much work has also 4)een done bearing directly or indirectly on the mode of action of quinine and other anti-malarial drugs. The absorption, distribution and metabolism of quinine has been investigated by various workers of whom Kelsey, Ceiling, Oldham and Dearborn (1944)... 

It is amazing to note that complex processes such as drug binding to protein, activation of cells, and observation of syncytial cellular response should apparently so closely follow a model based on these simple concepts. This was not lost on A. J. Clark in his treatise on drug receptor theory The Mode of Action of Drugs on Cells [4] ... 

Antifungal drugs are classified according to their mode of action and/or their chemical class.
