What characteristics of a drug allow it to pass most quickly through cell

Give this one a try later!
Large, charged (ionized), water Small, charged (ionized), lipid
soluble--require energy to pass soluble--need carrier proteins to
through membrane cross membrane
Small, uncharged (unionized), Medium, ionized, lipid insoluble--
lipid soluble--pass through pass through membrane with active
membrane without any energy transport
