detailed answers ||
absorption of drugs || ||
Transfer of drugs from site of administration to various tissues of the body
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
Pharmaceutics
Address how various drug forms affect the dissolution , the absorption rate and,
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
subsequently, its onset of action of the drug. || || || || || || ||
Metabolism of drugs primarily takes place in the
|| || || || || || ||
liver (drug inactivation)
|| ||
ER (extended release)
|| ||
released over a period of time
|| || || || ||
often abbreviated as XL,SR,XR,SA
|| || ||
Parenteral
by injection, by pass the GI tract
|| || || || || ||
, 2
pharmacokinetics
The process by which drugs are absorbed, distributed within the body, metabolized, and
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
excreted.
Distribution
movement of drug by circulatory system to intended site of action (from circulation to
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
receptors or target sites)
|| || ||
metabolism
change that occurs in a drug where it becomes less potent, more soluble, or an inactive
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
form.
What organ is responsible for metabolism?
|| || || || ||
liver
Biotransformation (metabolism) ||
The chemical alteration that a substance undergoes in the body.
|| || || || || || || || ||
metabolite
A chemical form of a drug that is the product of one or more biochemical reactions
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
involving the parent drug.
