It is a complex and complicated technique

Describes the effect of the drug a single patient experiencing

Case report

Cheap method for generating hypothesis about drug effects


Easiest study

Metabolism


Excretion

Why do drugs fail?

Because 39% pharamcokinetics of rxn of our body to the drugs

Importance of Pharamcokinetics

*Toxic drugs can accumulate in the body


*Useful drugs may have no benefit because doses are too small establish therapy


*A drug can be rapidly mabolized

Drugs usually enter in this route

Absortion

The rate of efficiency of absorption will differ depending on the route of administration

Absorption

Outside the alimentary canal

Parenteral

Involves esophagus, small and large intestin

Enteral

Swallowed, maximum convinience slower and less absorbed then parenteral

Oral

Metabolism of a significant of drug in the gut wall and liver before it reaches the blood stream

1st pass effect

Permits direct absorption into the systemic veinous circulation thus avoiding 1st pass effect

Sublingual

Thru rectum. Direct absorption depend on physical formulation

Rectal

90% faster and complete absorption more painful

Intramuscular injection

45% type of injection

Subcutaneous

15% injection

Intraderma

Rapid absorption because of large surface area in lungs

Inhalation

Skin or mucous membrane of the nose, throat, airway or vagina for a local effect

Topucal administration

Across the skin e.g. skin patches.


Systemic effect lyophilic
