In pharmacology, "effective dose" (often denoted as ED) refers to the dose of a drug or therapeutic agent that produces a desired or therapeutic effect in a specified percentage of the population or in a specific clinical context. It is a critical concept in understanding the relationship between drug dosage and therapeutic efficacy. The most commonly cited metric is the ED50, which is the dose at which 50% of the population exhibits a specified effect.
