What Role Does Distribution Play in Toxicity?

Distribution refers to the dispersion or dissemination of substances throughout the fluids and tissues of the body. The volume of distribution (Vd) is a fundamental PK parameter that quantifies the extent to which a toxin is distributed in body tissues compared to the plasma. A high Vd indicates extensive distribution, possibly leading to accumulation in specific organs and increased toxicity.
