Pharmacokinetics ($PK): Pharmacokinetics is the study of how a drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted by the body. It helps determine how a drug reaches its target, how long it stays active, and how it is eliminated. Understanding pharmacokinetics is crucial for determining the appropriate dosage, frequency, and route of administration to maximize therapeutic effects while minimizing side effects. Variations in pharmacokinetics due to factors like genetics, age, or organ function can influence how individuals respond to drugs, making it important for personalizing treatment to ensure safety and effectiveness.
