ADME is an abbreviation that describes the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of pharmaceutical compounds in the body. Absorption determines how well a drug enters the bloodstream. Distribution refers to how a drug is carried through the bloodstream and tissues. Metabolism is how drugs break down, and excretion is how they and their metabolites are removed from the body, usually through urine or feces. Together, these processes determine how a drug is processed within an organism.
