Which effect of protein binding on drugs in the bloodstream is accurate?.
Protein binding does not inactivate the drug. Instead, it can affect the drug’s distribution and bioavailability.
Protein binding does not directly increase the risk of an allergic reaction. Allergic reactions are typically immune responses to a drug, not a result of protein binding.
An idiosyncratic reaction is an unusual or unexpected reaction to a drug, which is not related to protein binding.
Protein binding can lead to the accumulation of the drug. Drugs often cannot cross membranes mainly due to the high molecular mass of the drug-protein complex, resulting in the accumulation of the active compounds.
Choice A rationale:
Protein binding does not inactivate the drug. Instead, it can affect the drug’s distribution and bioavailability.
Choice B rationale:
Protein binding does not directly increase the risk of an allergic reaction. Allergic reactions are typically immune responses to a drug, not a result of protein binding.
Choice C rationale:
An idiosyncratic reaction is an unusual or unexpected reaction to a drug, which is not related to protein binding.
Choice D rationale:
Protein binding can lead to the accumulation of the drug. Drugs often cannot cross membranes mainly due to the high molecular mass of the drug-protein complex, resulting in the accumulation of the active compounds.
