Curiosity is the nature of man and availability of chance favor the prepared mind to explore the hidden things in the universe.One thought, observation or experience is based for the others. Chemistry is mother of the different disciplines. Macromolecules (carbohydrates,proteins, lipids etc), substitution of different group (R=Alklyl, Aryl etc) in their molecules changes their therapeutic efficacy and pharmacokinetics.Stereoisomerism in macromolecules structures, role of liposome's in penetration of drugs in cosmetics, percentage yield and antibiotics fromnatural moulds plays an important and significant role in pharmacy. The object is to find out a relationship between curiosity, macromoleculesand pharmacy which might be able to clear the concept about mechanism of action of drugs, discovery of the new drugs and to understandpharmacological and adverse effects of drugs. This might be helpful in therapeutic management, follow up and better health care of patientsin future
