Which of the following pharmacokinetic factors exhibits racial differences?
Correct!
Protein binding.
Passive tubular reabsorption.
Absorption.
Filtration at the glomrulus.
The pharmacokinetic factors that can be expected to potentially exhibit racial differences are (1)
bioavailability for drugs that undergo gut or hepatic first-pass metabolism, (2) protein binding, (3)
volume of distribution, (4) hepatic metabolism, and (5) renal tubular secretion. Absorption, filtration at
the glomerulus, and passive tubular reabsorption would not be expected to exhibit such differences.
