Pharmacokinetics is... How the body effects the drug

absorption from the administration site either
Absorption
directly or indirectly into the blood/plasma.

reversibly/irreversibly movement of drug from the
Distribution bloodstream into the interstitial and intracellular
fluid.

, drug biotransformation via metabolic pathways,
Metabolism
primarily the liver, or by other tissues.

how parent drug & its metabolites are eliminated
Elimination
from the body

· Gastrointestinal pH changes
· Gastric emptying
· Gastric/intestinal enzymes
· Bile acids & biliary function
Absorption factors · Gastrointestinal flora (type and quantity of
bacteria)
· Food & nutrient interactions (most common
interaction influencing GI drug absorption)
· Lipid solubility of the drug

field.6.1. Challenges in Business ExamsOne of the primary challenges in business exams is the need to balance theoretical

, · Membrane permeability: Cross membranes to site
of action
· Blood brain barrier reduces the speed of drug
passage into and out of brain tissue
· Plasma protein binding: drugs bound to plasma
proteins do not cross membranes (Note:
Distribution factors Malnutrition = âalbumin = á free drug = greater
pharmacologic response)
· Aging cause a reduction in production of plasma
proteins
· Lipophilicity of drug: lipophilic drugs concentrate
in adipose tissue; remain in the body for a longer
period of time

· Body Composition
- Increased Total body water and extracellular fluid
-Decreased Adipose tissue and skeletal muscle
· Protein Binding (changes with aging)
-Albumin, bilirubin, a1-acid glycoprotein
Volume of distribution -Albumin affected by nutrition
-Low albumin (hypoalbuminemia) can cause less
protein-bound drug reaching the tissue site of
action.
· Tissue Binding
- Compositional changes

o Drugs can undergo metabolism in the lungs,
blood, liver, intestines and kidney
o Volatile drugs are primarily excreted by the lungs
Metabolism factors
· The body changes drugs to more or less active
forms (metabolites), increases water solubility to
increase elimination.

· Cytochrome P450 system
· Located within the endoplasmic reticulum of
hepatocytes.
· Through electron transport chain, a drug bound to
Phase 1 Metabolism the CYP450 system undergoes oxidation or
reduction.
· Drug metabolism in the liver is also affected by:
-Enzyme induction
- Drug interactions
