Question 1 of 5
Which of the following best describes pharmacokinetics?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Pharmacokinetics is the study of how drugs are absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted by the body. This involves understanding how the body processes a drug after administration. Absorption refers to how the drug enters the bloodstream, distribution is how the drug is transported to different parts of the body, metabolism involves the breakdown of the drug in the body, and excretion is the removal of the drug or its metabolites from the body.
Choices A, B, and C do not encompass the comprehensive scope of pharmacokinetics.
Choice A focuses on drug interactions,
Choice B on drug development and manufacturing, and
Choice C on drug prescription and administration, which are not the core components of pharmacokinetics.
