when describing the differences affecting the pharmacokinetics of drugs administered to children, which would the nurse include?

Sagot :

Because the stratum corneum is thinner and more hydrated in newborns and early children, Topical drug absorption is increased in these age groups. Slower gastric emptying, greater intestinal motility, a proportionately bigger small intestine surface area, elevated gastric pH, and decreased lipase and amylase output all slow down oral medication absorption. Drugs administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously have irregular and potentially reduced absorption.
