Study Notes
Pharmacokinetics Processes
- Two main processes of transfer of drugs across cell barriers are lipid diffusion and aqueous diffusion
- Lipid diffusion is characterized by the ability of drugs to dissolve in and pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane
- Aqueous diffusion involves the movement of drugs through aqueous pores or channels in the cell membrane
Pharmacokinetic Processes
- A specific pharmacokinetic process is the transfer of drugs across cell barriers
- The three main areas for discussion in the lecture on pharmacokinetics are not specified, but typical areas of discussion in pharmacokinetics include absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of drugs.
