antacids drug absorption Correct Answer: Antacids cause a pharmokinetic interaction which is
what the body does to the drug in terms of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
Antacids increase the PH of gastric juices which causes a decrease in the absorption of weak acid
drugs such as tetracycline
gastric and intestinal motility influence drug absorption. Correct Answer: Drug absorption is the
movement of the drug into the bloodstream after administration (McCuistion & Vuljoin-
Dimmagio, 2018, p. 16). The lining of the small intestine is covered in villi that increase the the
surface area for absorption and is decreased because of disease or drugs (p.16). Absorption in the
small intestine is done by passive transport, active transport, or pinocytosis (p.16). In the GI tract
the lining is made up of a mucous membrane composes of lipids and proteins which allows lipid
soluble drugs to easily pass through (p. 16-17). If the drug is water soluble it will need a protein
or enzyme carrier to pass through (p.17).
