This is a comprehensive and detailed study guide on Exam 4 for NUR 3145. *Essential Study Material!!

ADME: Absorption The process of the drug moving from the site of administration to the bloodstream; determines the onset of drug action. The faster the absorption, the faster the onset. ADME: Distribution The movement of the drug through the body. Determined by several factors including protein-drug binding - only the free drug can be distributed to the tissues. ADME: Excretion Primary site is the kidney. The rate of excretion determines the drug blood level.
