Factors Influencing the Distribution of Drugs

Vengamma Ramineni

2020 Tuesday, October 6

The medications are put through a series of procedures known as disposition processes, which have the tendency to reduce the drug's plasma concentration.

The procedures for drug disposal are:

1. Distribution - In this process, a medication is transferred reversibly across compartments.

2. Elimination - In this process, the medication is permanently removed from the body by biotransformation and excretion.

Definition

The reversible transport of a drug from one compartment (blood) to another is known as drug distribution (extravascular tissue).

The gradient in concentration between the blood and extravascular tissues drives distribution, which is a passive process.

Diffusion of the free drug causes this process to continue until equilibrium is reached.

These activities are involved in drug distribution two steps:

Free medication in the blood passes past the capillary wall and enters the interstitial/extracellular fluid (ECF).

Drugs can pass through tissue cell membranes and into intracellular fluid (ICF) from extracellular fluid (ECF). This process is rate-limited and is affected by two variables:

the ECF's rate of perfusion, and

Drug Permeability across Membranes.
