Pharmacokinetics can be defined as the study of the dynamic movements of foreign chemicals (xenobiotics) during their passage through the body and thus encompasses the kinetics of absorption, distribution, biotransformation / metabolism and excretion (ADME ). This can simply be described as how the body handles xenobiotics. Pharmacokinetics uses mathematical equations (models) to describe the evolution of ADME of xenobiotics in the body, which allows us to better understand, interpret and even predict the nature and extent of biological effects (therapeutic or toxic) xenobiotics. Several approaches are used in pharmacokinetics to describe the fate of xenobiotics in the body, in particular by considering the body as one or more homogeneous compartments based either on mathematical adjustment or on physiological properties. The description of the rates of movement of xenobiotics in tissues allows a better interpretation and prediction of the fate of xenobiotics in the body. This article will introduce the reader to the basic concepts and principles of pharmacokinetic analysis using compartmentalized and physiological models.
