What is the role of absorption in pharmacokinetics?
Absorption is the process of substances passing from various points in the body into the blood. The intensity of a drug's effect is more correlated with its plasma concentration than with the administered dose. The pH of the stomach determines the degree of dissociation and therefore the absorption of a weak acid drug. The colon plays a significant role in the absorption of orally administered drugs.
