Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect of protein binding on drug distribution?
  • Step 1: Understand that drugs can bind to proteins in the blood.
  • Step 2: Know that when a drug binds to a protein, it becomes inactive and cannot work.
  • Step 3: Realize that only the unbound (free) drug can move to where it is needed in the body.
  • Step 4: Recognize that if more drug is bound to proteins, less free drug is available.
  • Step 5: Conclude that higher protein binding means less drug can reach its target and have an effect.
