questionhint
factor that influences blood levels of a drug: drug _____ or breakdown
lipophilic drug given SQ or IM is absorbed quickly or slowly?
does passive diffusion require energy?
amount of drug that actually reaches the bloodstream
lipophilic drugs are absorbed best _____
drug molecules are surrounded by part of the cell membrane and taken within the cell
does active transport require energy?
If a molecule changes to primarily hydrophilic form, it may not be able to leave the cell; what is this called?
body's ability to change the original drug into a form that can be eliminated

the movement of blood from the blood stream into tissues is _____
measure of the acidity or alkalinity of the drugs environment
