Drug absorption is a pharmacokinetic parameter that refers to the way a drug is absorbed from a pharmaceutical formulation into the bloodstream.

Several factors can affect the absorption of a drug into the body. These include:
physicochemical properties (e.g. solubility)
drug formulation (e.g. tablets, capsules, solutions)
the route of administration (e.g. oral, buccal, sublingual, rectal, parenteral, topical, or inhaled)
the rate of gastric emptying
