3. Introduction of bioavailability
 The rate and extent at which the active concentration of a drug is available
at the desired site of action.
Bioavailability=

 In such cases, the dose available to the patient, called as bioavailable
dose. It often less than the administered dose.
 The amount of drug that reaches the systemic circulation is called as
systemic availability.
 The term bioavailable fraction F refers to the fraction of administered
dose that enters the systemic circulation.

4.  Primary stages of development of a suitable dosage foam for a new drug
entity to obtain evidence of its therapeutic utility.
Objective of bioavailability studies
Bioavailability studies are important in the-
 Determination of influence of excipients, patient-related factors and
possible interaction with other drug on the efficiency of absorption.
 Development of new formulations of the existing drugs.

5.  Control of quality of a drug product during the early stages of factors,
storages and stability on the drug absorption.
 Comparison of availability of a drug substance from different dosage
forms or from the same dosage from produced by different manufactures.

6. Types of bioavailability
There are two types of bioavailability
- Relative bioavailability
- Absolute bioavailability
 Relative bioavailability
The relative bioavailability is the systemic availability of a drug after oral
administration is compared with that of oral standard of the same drug.

7.  Absolute bioavailability
when the systemic availability of a drug administered orally is comparison
to its intravenous administration, is called as absolute bioavailability .

8. Factors affecting Bioavailability
There are various factors which affect the bioavailability of drug-
 Pharmaceutical factors
 Pharmacological factors
 Route of administration
8

9. Pharmaceutical Factors:
 It is expected that, bioavailability of drugs to be in this decreasing
order-
Solutions > Suspension > Capsule > Tablet > Coated Tablet
9

10. The Pharmaceutical factors include:
 Particle Size
 Salt Form
 Crystal Forms
 Nature of Excipients
 Degree of Ionisation
 Partition coefficient
 The method of manufacturing

11. Pharmacological Factors 11

12. The Pharmacological factors include:
 Gastric Emptying and Gastrointestinal Motility
 Gastrointestinal Diseases
 Food and Other Substances
 First Pass Metabolism
 Drug-Drug Interactions

13. Route of administration
 Parenteral
 Oral
 Topical
 Rectal
 Inhalation
Parenteral > Oral > rectal > Topical
