Abstract

Aquatic toxicology is a critical field of research focused on evaluating the impact of pollutants, including pharmaceuticals, on marine ecosystems. As pharmaceutical compounds increasingly find their way into the aquatic environment through wastewater discharge, agricultural runoff, and other human activities, there is growing concern about their long-term effects on marine life. Pharmaceuticals, even in trace amounts, can disrupt the behavior, reproduction, and survival of aquatic organisms, leading to changes in biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. This article explores the environmental impact of pharmaceutical pollutants in marine ecosystems, discusses the methods used to assess aquatic toxicity, and highlights key findings regarding the effects of various drugs on marine life. The growing need for effective management and regulation of pharmaceutical contaminants is also emphasized, with a focus on the potential solutions to mitigate their impact on marine environments
