Predicting Pharmacokinetics of Drugs Using Physiologically Based Modeling—Application to Food Effects [PDF]
Our knowledge of the major mechanisms underlying the effect of food on drug absorption allows reliable qualitative prediction based on biopharmaceutical properties, which can be assessed during the pre-clinical phase of drug discovery. Furthermore, several recent examples have shown that physiologically based absorption models incorporating biorelevant
