Pharmacokinetics: definition, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion
oAbsorption- the movement of a substance from across the body and into fluids
oDistribution- transport of drugs throughout the body
oMetabolism- breaking down of the drug into the body
oExcretion- process of drugs being removed from the body
Pharmacodynamics: agonists, antagonists, partial agonists
oAgonist- acts like a receptor that binds to the site, enhances it. Example: pain med, morphine, opioid
oAntagonist- blocks the receptor and doesn’t get medication. Example: Narcan, beta blockers
