Study Notes
Drug Absorption
- Systemic absorption of a drug is measured by the term bioavailability. It quantifies how much and how quickly the active ingredient is available in the circulation.
Drug Product
- A Drug Product refers to a finished dosage form that is intended for administration to patients. This includes the active drug and all excipients necessary for formulation.
Dosage Form
- The term Drug Product is often used interchangeably with Dosage Form, but encompasses a broader concept that includes all aspects of the pharmaceutical dosage.
Drug Product Performance
- Drug Product Performance refers to how well a drug product behaves in terms of its release, absorption, and overall effectiveness in achieving therapeutic results.
Physicochemical Properties
- Biopharmaceutics examines the relationship between the physical and chemical properties of a drug and its bioavailability, pharmacokinetics (the study of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion), and pharmacodynamics (the effects of the drug on the body).
