In Europe, the term is "medicinal product", and it is defined by EU law as:
"Any substance or combination of substances presented as having properties for treating or preventing disease in human beings; or" "Any substance or combination of substances which may be used in or administered to human beings either with a view to restoring, correcting or modifying physiological functions by exerting a pharmacological, immunological or metabolic action, or to making a medical diagnosis." In the US, a "drug" is:
A substance recognized by an official pharmacopeia or formulary. A substance intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. A substance (other than food) intended to affect the structure or any function of the body. A substance intended for use as a component of a medicine but not a device or a component, part or accessory of a device. Biological products are included within this definition and are generally covered by the same laws and regulations, but differences exist regarding their manufacturing processes (chemical process versus biological process).

One of the key classifications is between traditional small molecule drugs; usually derived from chemical synthesis, and biologic medical products; which include recombinant proteins, vaccines, blood products used therapeutically (such as IVIG), gene therapy, and cell therapy (for instance, stem cell therapies).
Pharmaceuticals or drugs or medicines are classified in various other groups besides their origin on the basis of pharmacological properties like mode of action and their pharmacological action or activity, such as by chemical properties, mode or route of administration, biological system affected, or therapeutic effects. An elaborate and widely used classification system is the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC system). The World Health Organization keeps a list of essential medicines.
A sampling of classes of medicine includes:
Antipyretics: reducing fever (pyrexia/pyresis) Analgesics: reducing pain (painkillers) Antimalarial drugs: treating malaria Antibiotics: inhibiting germ growth Antiseptics: prevention of germ growth near burns, cuts and wounds Mood stabilizers: lithium and valpromide Hormone replacements: Premarin Oral contraceptives: Enovid, "biphasic" pill, and "triphasic" pill Stimulants: methylphenidate, amphetamine Tranquilizers: meprobamate, chlorpromazine, reserpine, chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, and alprazolam Statins: lovastatin, pravastatin, and simvastatin
