Question:

What factors influence drug distribution?

Author: H K



Answer:

Blood flow to tissue, capillary permeability, lipophilicity of the drug, degree of binding to the proteins Usually muscles, viscera and fat get delivered drugs slowly while other organs have a higher rate of distribution like liver, brain, spleen... There also should be equilibrium between drug in blood and target organ (bound drugs in blood compensate the drugs that go to interstitium)
