Drug Formulation
||




First pass effect - ✔✔The initial metabolism in the liver of a drug absorbed from the

gastrointestinal tract before the drug reaches systemic circulation through the bloodstream. || || || || || || || || || ||




Reduces the bioavailability of the drug to less than 100%

systemic half-life ||




Distribution - ✔✔Sent to specific areas of the body by body fluid. || || || || || || || || || || || ||




Binds to specific binding sites
|| || || || ||




Highway of the body is the blood stream || || || || || || ||




Albumin - ✔✔Most common blood protein and carries the majority of protein-bound drug
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||




molecule



Metabolism (aka biotransformation) - ✔✔Breaks down a drug, like a coffee filter for PO
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




medications and sends it out to your body. || || || || || || || ||




Main site is the liver.
|| || || ||




Can also metabolize in lungs, kidneys, blood, and intestines.
|| || || || || || || ||




Excretion - ✔✔Elimination of drugs from the body
