Diffusion

Just a few routes exist for a drug to enter a living thing:

  • diffusion inside cells (aqueous)
  • cellular diffusion inside (lipid)
  • cellular diffusion (usually, aqueous)
  • Active diffusion and assisted transport

In other words, the medication has the ability to cross membranes and passively disperse along the body's fluid-filled cavities (whether through gaps or by diffusion). It can enter cells directly by diffusing across the lipid bilayer, or it can actively enter cells through pinocytosis, assisted diffusion, active uptake, or another method. In essence, all of these methods—aside from active pump-mediated transport—rely on diffusion in some way, and as a result, they are influenced by the same factors that affect diffusion of anything through anything.
