Do all the drugs that we take orally undergo first pass metabolism?
Sep 27, 2014
Most drugs are metabolized in the liver where the original ingredient is transformed into the active form that will exert the desired effect. Other fewer drugs do not undergo this kind of reaction and are directly taken up into the system.
