Bioavailability describes the rate and extent in which the active drug ingredient
assimilated from a drug product and available at the site of drug action.

Pharmacologic usually associated with the concentration of drug at the place of drug
action, the availability of a prescription from a dosage form is a vital element of a drug
product’s clinical efficacy.

Orally given drugs must move into the intestinal wall and next to the portal circulation to
the liver; both are commonplaces of the first-pass metabolism. Numerous medicines
metabolized earlier enough plasma concentrations reached. Low bioavailability is most
familiar with oral dosage kinds of poorly water-soluble, slightly absorbed medications.
Inadequate time for absorption in the GI tract is the usual cause of low bioavailability.
Age, sex, exercise, genetic phenotype, tension, diseases (e.g., achlorhydria,
malabsorption syndromes, and bariatric surgery) can also impact drug bioavailability.
