from How Medicines Work in the Human Body Hosted by Glispe

A medicine's journey begins long before you notice its effects. This episode follows a drug from the moment it enters the body through absorption, distribution, and interaction with its biological targets. Learn how the liver and kidneys help process and eliminate medicines, why some treatments work quickly while others take longer, and how the body's chemistry influences the results.
