The absorption of drugs is influenced by several pharmaceutical factors that can alter the extent and rate at which a drug reaches its site of action. These factors include: 1. Physicochemical Properties of the Drug: The solubility and stability of a drug play a significant role in absorption. Drugs must be in a dissolved state to be absorbed efficiently. Lipophilic drugs are generally absorbed more easily as they pass through biological membranes, which are lipid-based. 2. Drug Formulation: The formulation of a drug, such as its dosage form (tablet, capsule, solution), can affect the rate of absorption. For instance,
