Use the left and right arrow keys to move between steps. Practice next in the Pharmacokinetics Lab. Drugs are named by generic name only, and this page gives no doses. Molecules, organs and the body are drawn as simple shapes, and processes that take hours are sped up so you can watch them. Always follow the prescriber's order, your facility's policy and the drug label.
