is critical to prescribing because:

2

3

. There will be less free drug available to generate an effect.



4 Drugs bound to albumin are readily excreted by the Kidneys



2. Drugs that have a significant first-pass effect:

1

. Must be given by the enteral (oral) route only

2

. Bypass the hepatic circulation

3

. Are rapidly metabolized by the liver and may have little if any desired action
