Exam (elaborations) NURSING 101 Pharmacology Proctored ATI Study Guide. (NURSING101) Pharmacology Proctored ATI Study Guide Chapter 1: Pharmacokinetics and Routes of Administration  Absorption  Route of admin affects the rate and amount of absorption o Oral:  GI pH and emptying time  Presence of food in the stomach or intestines  Form of meds (liquid/XR) o Sublingual/buccal  Quick absorption systemically through highly vascular mucous membranes o Inhalation via mouth/nose  Rapid absorption through alveolar capillary networks o Intradermal, topical  Slow, gradual absorption o SQ/IM  Highly soluble meds have rapid absorption (10-30min), poorly soluble have slower absorption  Blood perfusion at site of injection affect absorption o IV  Immediate and
