This chapter aims to introduce basic pharmacokinetic terminologies and principles underpinning a drug's life cycle in the body, from administration to elimination. The chapter will help readers to understand a typical pharmacokinetic profile following drug administration via absorptive versus non‐absorptive routes.

The understanding of the critical role of absorption processes in pharmacokinetics will help in understanding how biopharmaceutics principles and strategies can modulate the pharmacokinetic profile of a drug and in turn affect the therapeutics.
