Having a significant impact on drug discovery, clinical study administration, and pharmaceutical data management, medical information science has grown to be a main player in the pharmaceutical industry. Combining Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Big Data Analytics, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Blockchain, and Cloud Computing has sped, more accurate, less expensively revolutionised the way things are done. Computational drug design and genomics have hastened molecular screening and target selection; predictive modelling based on artificial intelligence has made testing how well medications function simpler. Finding new patients, customising medications, and monitoring pharmaceuticals after they have been sold have all become simpler using Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and Real-World Data (RWD). Using virtual screening techniques and high-throughput screening (HTS) has accelerated the search for novel medications and rendered traditional testing procedures less relevant. Blockchain technology simultaneously ensures accurate data, adherence to rules, and safe pharmaceutical operations as well as precise legislation. Big challenges include artificial intelligence model bias, data privacy concerns, complex rules, and systems unable to interact with one another still exist even with these developments. We must establish moral guidelines, open artificial intelligence systems, and uniform standards if we are to address these issues. Future pharmaceutical research will be much improved by synthetic biology, deep learning, and quantum computing. This will improve patient outcomes and hasten the development of fresh medications. This paper demonstrates the significance of Medical Information Science to modern medications as well as how it may inspire fresh ideas in healthcare worldwide.
