to the drug in terms of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Antacids increase the PH of
gastric juices which causes a decrease in the absorption of weak acid drugs such as tetracycline
, gastric and intestinal motility influence drug absorption. ANS - Drug absorption is the movement of the
drug into the bloodstream after administration (McCuistion & Vuljoin-Dimmagio, 2018, p. 16). The lining
of the small intestine is covered in villi that increase the the surface area for absorption and is decreased
because of disease or drugs (p.16). Absorption in the small intestine is done by passive transport, active
transport, or pinocytosis (p.16). In the GI tract the lining is made up of a mucous membrane composes
of lipids and proteins which allows lipid soluble drugs to easily pass through (p. 16-17). If the drug is
water soluble it will need a protein or enzyme carrier to pass through (p.17).
