Clinical pharmacokinetics·2019

This review covers bioavailability measurement methods, including absolute and relative bioavailability. It also discusses challenges in assessing drug absorption rates when intravenous dosing isn't feasible.

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacokinetics
  • Drug Absorption and Distribution

Background:

  • Bioavailability is a crucial pharmacokinetic parameter.
  • It quantifies the fraction of a non-intravenously administered drug reaching systemic circulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review methods for measuring bioavailability (absolute and relative).
  • To discuss challenges in assessing drug absorption rates, especially without intravenous administration.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on bioavailability assessment.
  • Analysis of techniques for determining absolute and relative bioavailability.
  • Discussion of methods for evaluating drug absorption rate.

Main Results:

  • Different approaches for absolute and relative bioavailability measurement are presented.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Challenges in evaluating drug absorption rate using C(max), T(max), or curve fitting are highlighted.

    • Conclusions:

    • Accurate bioavailability assessment is vital for drug development.
    • Alternative methods are needed when intravenous administration is not possible for bioavailability studies.
