The distribution of medications has special drug safety and security considerations. [1] Some drugs require cold chain management in their distribution. [2] The industry uses track and trace technology, though the timings for implementation and the information required vary across different countries, with varying laws and standards. [citation ...
ADME is the four-letter abbreviation (acronym) for absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, and is mainly used in fields such as pharmacokinetics and pharmacology. The four letter stands for descriptors quantifying how a given drug interacts within body over time.
The first pharmacokinetic model described in the scientific literature [2] was in fact a PBPK model. It led, however, to computations intractable at that time. The focus shifted then to simpler models, [3] for which analytical solutions could be obtained (such solutions were sums of exponential terms, which led to further simplifications.)
Distribution in pharmacology is a branch of pharmacokinetics which describes the reversible transfer of a drug from one location to another within the body.. Once a drug enters into systemic circulation by absorption or direct administration, it must be distributed into interstitial and intracellular fluids.
Quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) is a discipline within biomedical research that uses mathematical computer models to characterize biological systems, disease processes and drug pharmacology. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] QSP can be viewed as a sub-discipline of pharmacometrics that focuses on modeling the mechanisms of drug pharmacokinetics (PK ...
Specialty pharmacy refers to distribution channels designed to handle specialty drugs — pharmaceutical therapies that are either high cost, [1] [2] [3] high complexity [3] and/or high touch. [2] High touch refers to higher degree of complexity in terms of distribution, administration, or patient management which drives up the cost of the drugs.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Oregon and Ohio State are two of the most daunting teams left in the College Football Playoff in no small part because they've both got starting quarterbacks who had already ...
Drug packaging (or pharmaceutical packaging) is process of packing pharmaceutical preparations for distribution, and the physical packaging in which they are stored. It involves all of the operations from production through drug distribution channels to the end consumer.
