pharmacokinetic studies

What Are the Key Phases of Pharmacokinetics?

The four primary phases of pharmacokinetics are:
1. Absorption: Determines how a substance enters the bloodstream and the rate at which this occurs.
2. Distribution: Describes how the compound is distributed throughout the body tissues and organs.
3. Metabolism: Involves the biotransformation of the substance, often in the liver, into metabolites.
4. Excretion: The process of eliminating the substance and its metabolites from the body, primarily through urine or feces.
