Pharmacological Life Extension

Meaning

Pharmacological Life Extension is the strategic use of specific therapeutic agents and pharmaceutical compounds, often off-label or repurposed drugs, to modulate fundamental biological processes with the explicit goal of slowing the rate of aging and extending the healthy, functional lifespan, or healthspan. This intervention is based on molecular biology and targets the core mechanisms of aging, moving beyond simple disease treatment. It represents a proactive, science-driven approach to longevity.
