Excretion (removed from the body)
🗑
|
||||
What is drug absorption? | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Requires cellular energy to move the drug from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. Used to absorb electrolytes, such as sodium and potassium, as well as some drugs such as Levodopa.
🗑
|
||||

show | A unique form of active transport that occurs when a cell engulfs a drug particle. Commonly employed to transport fat-soluble vitamins.(A,D,E,and K)
🗑
|
||||
What factors can effect the rate of absorption? | show 🗑

show | The process by which the drug is delivered from the systemic circulation to body tissues and fluids.
🗑
|
||||
show | blood flow
solubility
protein binding
🗑
|
||||
show | The process by which the body changes a drug from its dosage form to a more water-soluble form.

show | Promote the action of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, also called parasympathomimetic drugs.
🗑
|
||||
show | The action and metabolism of these drugs vary widely and depend on the affinity of the drug for muscarinic or nicotinic receptors.
🗑
